Livia's dining room at the Palazzo Massimo in Rome is one of my favorite museum rooms in the world, which given how many museums I love is no faint praise. Believed to be a cool triclinium for summer banquets this windowless room is anything but confining. The walls are decorated in a naturalistic style and are covered in trees, foliage, and birds which were painted at Livia's suburban villa between 20-30 BCE. I could spend hours looking at these walls and it seems incredible to me that I'm looking at something built for the wife of Emperor Augustus. No doubt this was the very best of domestic decoration!
