摘要:This paper discusses fragments of painter plaster from a Roman villa located on the isthmus of the Sorna peninsula to the south of Poreč. The preserved décor is from the wall and ceiling surfaces and the openings. The only figural depiction that is almost entirely preserved is from the ceiling decoration and depicts a winged Erote. For the most part few fragments have been preserved from a single section. The ceiling fragments are decorated with linear bands that imitate embroidery borders, vegetative tendrils and the motif of intersecting circles. Among the wall decorations are fragments depicting imitations of columns on red and yellow backgrounds, and imitations of marble. The archaeological context cannot be identified given that this Roman period villa has not been fully investigated and there is no data on the purpose of the room to which these fragments belonged.
