Where are this pictures from, Jackie and Bob? Are they stills from that Ingrid Bergmann film (can't remember the title, too early on a Sunday morning!)? I thought I had seen all the archival photos of this house, but these are new to me! Shows how much was rebuilt after excavation too ...
Hi Jackie and Bob,
I will try and drop by Friday, and see if I can get some images for you.
If I remember correctly, the area is still closed off, and many of the walls are braced up.
All the best from Naples,
Rick
