Exterior decoration
#2
I don't know of any books but I seem to recall seeing some museum models, artists illustrations with red up to about 5' and then white. Also there is Wroxeter where they have built a Roman villa and (regardless of the hash of the inside!) they have it as all pale yellow so I assume they have based that on something? I'd be interested to know if you have found any other references.

Ok, maybe 2' not 5' for the red section. I wonder what this chap based his painting on? http://jeanclaudegolvin.com/pompei-2/

Asking me to tile your bathroom is like asking Vermeer to creosote your shed ;-)
