Located in the northeast corner of the garden was a shrine, consisting of a small arched niche with accompanying cult painting. The niche had a large projecting base that extended out of the curve of the niche to act like a shelf. The surrounding painting had three registers. The upper register, above the niche, contained a sacrificial scene depicting the Genius holding a cornucopia and patera sacrificing on a cylindrical altar. A tibicen was located on the other side of the altar playing the flute. On either side of these figures were the Lares, larger than the other figures, holding rhyta and situla. On the outside of the scene were small trees. A garland with taeniae framed the top of the upper register. The middle register, on either side of the niche opening, depicted two birds among shrubs. A skewered piece of meat can be seen below the bird on the bottom right side. In the lower register, a serpent coiled towards a cylindrical altar furnished with an egg and a pine cone.
