The tepidarium (warm room, heated by a hypocaust or underfloor heating system) of Pompeii's Forum Baths has three walls of niches for clothing, each one separated by a telemon statuette. Telemones are male caryatids, architectural elements that replace a normal pilaster or column with a human figure. Here we can still see the frescoed wall in the niches, a rich red color.
These telemones were installed during the Republican era, reflecting masculine ideals. They all look like miniature Hercules figures. The more recent painted stucco decoration from after the 62 CE earthquake shows more lush vegetal scrolls and figures of boyishly beautiful gods and youths.
