"Pompeii, House of the Frog, No. 10218" is a photograph by Giacomo Brogi, a prominent Italian photographer known for documenting ancient Roman sites. Taken between 1880 and 1890, this image depicts a peristyle, a colonnaded courtyard, in the House of the Frog in Pompeii. Brogi's work provides valuable insights into the architecture and urban planning of ancient Roman cities, offering a glimpse into the daily life of Pompeii before its tragic destruction by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. The image is now part of the Städel Museum collection.
