Archaeologists have unearthed a stunningly realistic fresco of gladiators in action amid ongoing excavation work in the ruins of Pompeii.
The vibrant blue, red and gold fresco, which measures three feet by 4.5 feet, is in an area that's not currently accessbile to visitors.
“Very probably the fresco decorated a place used by gladiators, perhaps a watering hole, also frequented by prostitutes,” Massimo Osanna, director general of the archaeological park, told The Associated Press..
