This is a fresco from Pompeii, a portrait of Tarentius Neo and his wife. They owned bakeries and seem to have arrived at a comfortable level of financial stability. They are both shown as having a stake in the business, both contributing to it. She holds a stylus and a book, indicating she may be the accountant for the business, while he holds documents. The portrait shows them as equals, a young and good looking couple. It is quite likely that they did not survive the eruption of Vesuvius. This image is all that is left of them, but is seen by millions of people every year.
