Thermae Titi or Titus baths were built in haste, possibly by converting an existing or partly built bathing complex belonging to the reviled Domus Aurea. They were not particularly extensive, and the much larger Baths of Trajan were built immediately adjacent to them at the start of the next century. One of the features of the baths was mural designs by the artist Famullus or Fabullus , both al fresco and al stucco. Before the designs fell into disrepair from exposure to the elements, Nicholas Ponce copied and reproduced them as engravings in his volume Desription des bains de Titus Paris, 1786 . The designs are now recognized as a source of the style known as grotesque meaning like a small cave, a hollow, a grotto because the ruins of the Baths of Titus were in a hollow in the ground when they were discovered.
