Die Decken der Räume sind noch heute mit original erhaltenen farbigen französischen Deckentapeten geschmückt:
Im 1. und 3. Raum wird im Deckenspiegel in einem runden Mittelfeld die „Toilette der Venus“ dargestellt. Dieses Motiv aus der römischen Mythologie mit vier Puttengruppen in den Ecken auf dunkelblauem Grund sind von einer klassizistischen Randleiste umgeben.

In the 1st and 3rd rooms the "Toilet of Venus" is shown in the ceiling plan in a round center field. This motif from Roman mythology with four groups of putti in the corners on a dark blue background is surrounded by a classicist border.

Room of the Bacchantes
Room 12
This small room takes its name from the fresco in the centre of the ceiling, which depicts three women dancing within frames of ivy decorated all around by floral motifs, garlands, festoons, and musical instruments that recall the grotesques and stuccos of ancient Roman villas. Felice Giani (1758-1823) executed it between 1782 and 1785 as a reworking of the decorations of the Domus Aurea and Hadrian’s Villa, which he visited regularly. galleriaborghese.beniculturali.it/en/il-museo/la-villa/sa...
