Looking north-west from Casina dell’ Aquila to rear of IX.7.14. December 2007. According to Boyce and Jashemski, a garden was excavated near here. The west wall of the garden can be partially seen on the right side of the doorway of IX.7.14. Whether it belonged to IX.7.12, 14, or 16 cannot be seen until further excavation. See Boyce G. K., 1937. Corpus of the Lararia of Pompeii. Rome: MAAR 14. (p.89, no.445)  According to Jashemski, she quoted the location as IX.7.12(?). She said in the north-west corner of this partially excavated garden, at the left of the entrance, stood an aedicula lararium. In front of the lararium was a small altar, and a lararium painting on the wall around the shrine. Many marble sculptures decorated the garden. See Jashemski, W. F., 1993.

Looking north-west from Casina dell’Aquila to rear of entrance at IX.7.14, lower centre. 1968. 
On the left can be seen the west wall of the triclinium of IX.7.12.
The west wall of the garden can be seen behind the greenery, on the right of the doorway.
According to Boyce, against the west wall of the garden in a house only partially excavated, stood an aedicula.
It was built upon a square masonry base, the sides decorated with green plants painted on a white background.
Above the base, walls enclosed a niche. In front of the structure stood a small altar.
On the walls within the niche was the lararium painting. 
On the rear wall to the right of an altar, stood the Genius, pouring a libation upon the altar.
To the left of the same altar was a serpent, its head in stucco relief.
On each of the side walls were painted three figures, a plant, a Lar, and a man in a white garment.
The man held in his left hand an object, possibly a black cup, in his right hand was a patera.
