Psyche on Blue, House of Venus, Pompeii - Poster

Psyche floats across a wide expanse of mineral blues. This print captures a section of a Roman fresco from the House of Venus, Pompeii. Flaked plaster, lime efflorescence, and delicate hairline cracks preserve the archaeological feel while the figure remains graceful and ethereal. For more ancient textures and mythical snippets, take a look at our Pompeii Eternal range of Roman fresco prints.

We embrace the openness of the original artwork: a small winged figure set within a broad backdrop. This change in scale offers a serene, subtly dramatic effect ideal for UK homes. The colour scheme shifts from sky blues to chalky sandy tones, with Psyche rendered in warm ochre and terracotta shades. Style it alongside linens, limewash, travertine, or dark timber. Display it alone for a reflective touch or use it as a focal point among a collection. This print comes in multiple sizes, allowing you to maintain the intimacy of the detail or bring in a greater sense of space.
