I.4.11 Pompeii. May 2005. Entrance. According to Della Corte, this was a small shop furnished with two rooms for the clients, and with a small garden.  He jokes the shop was modest, but very promising for the clients, as the name of the owner was thought to be Copiosus. This name was shown in the graffiti found to the right of the entrance:
Sittium Magnum a[aed(ilem)] o(ro) v(os) f(aciatis)
Copiosus rogat   (CIL IV 989)
See Della Corte, M., 1965.  Case ed Abitanti di Pompei. Napoli: Fausto Fiorentino. (p. 263)

On the pilaster on the left side, between I.4.12 and I.4.11, the following painted graffiti were found in May 1853.
Painted in black or red, they were:

A(ulum) Postumium aed(ilem)
scr(ibsit) Infantio infra
scribente Parente II
rog(at)  (CIL IV 984)

Paquium Proculum d(uumvirum) i(ure) d(icundo) d(ignum) r(ei) p(ublicae)  (CIL IV 985)

N(umerium) Popidium [Rufu]m aed(ilem)  (CIL IV 986)

I.4.11 Pompeii. December 2007.  Looking east from first rear room with doorway to second rear room and to viridarium and latrine. Looking towards the south-east corner of the second rear room.  The latrine was in the south-east corner, according to Jashemski.
According to Boyce, on the north wall of the rear room was a lararium painting.  He described the Genius pouring a libation upon an altar; on each side of him stood a Lar. Below him was the painted altar with the two serpents. Below that was a masonry altar.
See Boyce G. K., 1937. Corpus of the Lararia of Pompeii. Rome: MAAR 14. (p.25) 
According to Jashemski, neither the lararium painting nor the masonry altar exists today. See Jashemski, W. F., 1993. The Gardens of Pompeii, Volume II: Appendices. New York: Caratzas. (p. 32)
