Italiano: Lo splendido mosaico (cm 163 x 163) di Eros-Bacco bambino in groppa ad una tigre intento a bere vino da un kantharos, con émblema centrale in opus vermiculatum, cornice interna a festoni di frutta e maschere, e cornice esterna ad onde continue, rinvenuto a Pompei nella Casa del Fauno (VI, 12, 2), è esposto nel Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli nella sezione dei mosaici (inv. nr. 9991). La rappresentazione incerta della tigre in forma di leone con pelo a strisce, fa datare il prototipo di questo mosaico alla fine del IV sec. a.C. quando ad Atene si era vista per la prima volta una tigre, bottino di guerra di Seleuco che aveva trionfato sul re indiano.
