Punishment of Ixion, House of the Vettii, Pompeii.\nThis mythological scene is located on the east wall of the north triclinium, which is located next to the large peristyle. It shows the moment of Ixion, the Lapith King, being punished for betraying Zeus. After being welcomed into Olympus by the god, Ixion grew to lust after Zeus's wife, Hera.
