Mixed forest
A fresco in the Roman town of Herculaneum appears to depict Lactarius deliciosus and is one of the earliest pieces of art to illustrate a fungus.

Thank you again Corduneanu, I was thinking Lactarius but not sure where to start. Check the note I added, found this very interesting.
Looks like Lactarius deliciosus
