Para muitas pessoas, Pompéia é definida por figuras horríveis de pessoas e animais capturados no momento da morte, revelados a nós por moldes criados pelas cavidades que seus corpos haviam deixado. Na Vila dos Mistérios, no entanto, essa moldagem também é usada para fins diferentes. Uma tela de madeira e uma persiana lançavam um sombreamento adicional do tempo sobre os afrescos que adornam as paredes de muitos quartos da vila. [For many people Pompeii is defined by horrific figures of people and animals caught at the moment of death revealed to us from molds created by the cavities their bodies had provided. In the Villa of Mysteries, however, this casting is also used to different ends. A wooden screen and a window shutter cast and additional shadowed silence of time over the fresco paintings that adorn the walls of many rooms in the villa.]
