2010060100 Odeon


Date post 1943?(see note)
Publication 101 Ediz ITEM, Albergo Anglo-Americano
By Rotafoto, Milano
Media Photograph, Postcard
Dimensions 148mm x 105mm
Title Pompei -Il Teatro Grande

Description
Misnamed as the "Teatro Grande" the photo shows the odeon with the crypta of the theatre in the background. Looking at the crypta there appears to be considerable damage around the second entrance to the theatre (from the triangular forum) which may be the result of the allied air raids in September 1943
