Η  ΒΙΟΜΗΧΑΝΙΑ...Liebig Factory.The Liebig extract of meat company, known as LEMCO, OXO, Fray Bentos, Brook Bond, etc., gave as a gift to their customers, with their produce, cards from various printers, such as Appel, or Testu and Massin, and afterwards complete sets, issued by the Liebig company itself.

Η ΘΥΕΛΛΑ ΤΗΣ ΗΡΑΣ...On its way to Italy, a storm sent by Hera (who had not forgotten the outrage she suffered at Mount Ida on the occasion of the Judgement of Paris), carried Aeneas' fleet to Libya, where there was a city Carthage, ruled by Queen Dido.

ΑΙΝΕΙΑΣ και ΔΙΔΩ..Aeneas impressing Queen Dido with war anecdotes and accounts on Trojan bravery and Achaean treachery.

Στο Νησί των ΚΥΚΛΩΠΩΝ...This is part of the adventures that Aeneas related to Dido: Looking for rest Aeneas and his crew crept to the shores of the Cyclopes, an unfriendly and anthropophagous race.

Ικεσίες της ΔΙΔΩ...Dido begged: "I implore you, and by our union of hearts, by our marriage hardly begun, if I have ever helped you at all, if anything about me pleased you, be sad for our broken home, forgo your purpose, I beg you, unless it is too late for prayers of mine!"

ΑΙΝΕΙΑΣ...Here are Dares and Entellus, who participated in the games held by Aeneas in Sicily.Dares was defeated in a boxing match by Entellus (Vir.Aen.5.368ff.)

Το όραμα του ΑΙΝΕΙΑ...Vision of Aeneas at the Elysian Fields: his father shows him both past and future.Behind them is the Cumaean Sibyl

ΑΙΝΕΙΑΔΑ..Δώρα φέροντες.... A Trojan embassy comes with gifts before King Latinus of Latium.The newcomers offer alliance along with the relics from Troy.The king, remebering and oracle, offers the hand of his daughter Lavinia to the absent Aeneas......

ΕΥΡΥΑΛΟΣ και ΝΙΣΟΣ..... Euryalus and Nisus, lovers and warriors in the army of Aeneas attacked by night the Rutulian camp and caused a great carnage, as the enemy was sleeping after heavy drinking.But on their return they were discovered by a cavalry force of three hundred men, and their commander Volcens killed Euryalus.Nisus died after killing Volcens.

ΑΙΝΕΙΑΔΑ...Μονομαχία.... Challenged to fight a single combat, Pallas 6 hurls his spear at Turnus but misses, before Turnus' spear kills him.Having spoiled the corpse, Turnus takes Pallas 6 golden baldric.

Μονομαχία του ΑΙΝΕΙΑ... Final duel between Aeneas and Turnus.Turnus, defeated, asked for his life, and Aeneas considered to pardon him.But when he saw that Turnus was wearing the baldric of Pallas, he slew him.

ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ.Το λιοντάρι της ΝΕΜΕΑΣ... This was Heracles' first labour.He shot the Nemean Lion with an arrow, but having perceived that the animal was invulnerable, he broke its neck with his bare hands.

ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ και ΛΕΡΝΑΙΑ ΥΔΡΑ.. As a second labour Heracles was ordered by Eurystheus to kill the Lernaean hydra, a monster with nine heads, one of them being immortal.He chopped all heads, and the immortal one he buried, putting a heavy rock on it.

ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ και ΕΡΥΜΑΝΘΙΟΣ ΚΑΠΡΟΣ... The illustration shows Heracles bringing the Erymanthian boar to MycenaeEurystheus, terrified at the sight, hides himself inside a bronze vessel (or inside something else, according to this artist)..

ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ.και ΕΛΑΦΙ της ΑΡΤΕΜΙΔΟΣ...As a third labour Heracles was ordered to bring the Cerynitian hind alive to Mycenae.This hind had golden horns, and was sacred to Artemis.Therefore Heracles did not wish to wound it, but he nevertheless shot it just as it was about to cross a river.He then caught it and hastened through Arcadia towards Mycenae.

ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ και ΣΤΥΜΦΑΛΙΔΕΣ ΟΡΝΙΘΕΣ.. Another labour consisted in chasing the man-eating birds who used their feathers as arrows.Their place of abode was the Stymphalian Lake in Arcadia.To help him in this task, Athena gave Heracles brazen castanets.By clashing these on a certain mountain that overhung the lake, he scared the birds, which could not abide the sound, but fluttered up in a fright.

ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ και ΑΜΑΖΟΝΕΣ... Another labour consisted in fetching the belt of Hippolyte, queen of the AMAZONS.She had the belt of Ares for being the best among the AMAZONS.Heracles was sent to fetch it because Admete, daughter of Eurystheus, desired to get it.When he arrived to the land of the AMAZONS, a fight broke out, and Heracles killed Hippolyte, stripping her of her belt.And having defeated the rest, he sailed away to Troy and later to Mycenae, where he surrendered the belt to Eurystheus.

ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ και ΣΤΑΥΛΟΙ ΤΟΥ ΑΥΓΕΙΑ... Eurystheus prescribed to carry out the dung of the cattle of King Augeas of Elis in a single day, without the assistance of any other man.Heracles, declining the task as unworthy to be done by his own hands, turned the course of the rivers Alpheus and Peneus into the stables, cleansing them by the rivers' streams.

ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ και ΤΑΥΡΟΣ της ΚΡΗΤΗΣ... Eurystheus ordered to bring the Cretan Bull.Heracles then came to Crete, caught the Cretan Bull and brought it to Eurystheus, who just let it go again.The beast then, having first roamed to Sparta and Arcadia, traversed the Isthmus of Corinth and arrived at Marathon in Attica, where it pestered the inhabitants all it could.
ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ και ΑΛΟΓΑ του ΔΙΟΜΗΔΗ...As yet another labour Eurystheus demanded that the MARES OF DIOMEDES (Dinus, Lampon, Podargus, and Xanthus) be brought to Mycenae.Heracles 1 came to Thrace with a group of volunteers, and after overpowering the grooms who were in charge of the stables, drove the mares to the beach.As the Bistonians in arms attacked him, Heracles defended himself, defeating them and slaying King Diomedes.Some have said that Heracles 1 killed Diomedes by throwing him to his mares, so that these devoured their master (as the illustration shows).

ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ και ΒΟΔΙΑ του ΓΗΡΥΟΝΗ... As another labour, Eurystheus ordered to fetch the Cattle of Geryon, who had the body of three men grown together and joined in one at the waist, but divided in three from the flanks and thighs.When Geryon hastened to join battle with Heracles beside a river, he was shot, losing both life and cattle.But in this illustration Heracles kills Geryon with his club.

ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ και ΑΤΛΑΣ...ΜΗΛΑ των ΕΣΠΕΡΙΔΩΝ... Eurystheus ordered Heracles to fetch the Apples of the HESPERIDES, which were either in Libya or in the far north.It was on this occasion that Heracles, following Prometheus' instructions, asked Atlas to fetch the Golden Apples instead of fetching them himself.That is why for a short time the Pillars of Heaven were supported by Heracles, who relieved Atlas while he went to fetch the Golden Apples.Atlas soon returned carrying three Golden Apples, but was no longer willing to support the vault of the sky, declaring that he could deliver the fruits to Eurystheus himself.Seeing that Atlas could not be persuaded, Heracles asked him to hold the sky just for a moment while he placed a pad on his head, and when Atlas held the sky again, Heracles picked up the apples and left.In the illustration, Atlas appears holding, not the vault of the sky but the earth, on which a geographic contour, well known by later times, has been depicted.

ΗΡΑΚΛΗΣ και ΚΕΡΒΕΡΟΣ... Finally Eurystheus imposed on Heracles a twelfth labour: to bring Hades' three-headed dog Cerberus from the UnderworldHaving descended to the nether world, Heracles asked Hades for Cerberus, and the god replied that he could take it if he could master it without weapons..So finding the three-headed hound at the gates of the river Acheron, he grasped it without relaxing his grip, and although the dragon in Cerberus' tail bit him, he at last gained control over the brute.Heracles returned to this world through an exit at Troezen, and after showing the hound to Eurystheus, he carried it back to the Underworld.

Ο ΦΙΛΟΚΤΗΤΗΣ στην ΛΗΜΝΟ...The wound that a snake caused Philoctetes proved to be incurable, and the stench which it produced was so difficult to endure that Agamemnon, the commander in chief of the army that had sailed against Troy, decided to get rid of Philoctetes, putting him ashore in the island of Lemnos, where he survived in the wildernesss for several years.

ΑΙΝΕΙΑΣ και ΑΠΟΛΛΩΝ... During the Trojan War, Aeneas was wounded by Diomedes and, having fainted, would have died if his mother had not come to his rescue.When on the occasion Aphrodite herself was wounded by Diomedes, Apollo took over the protection of the wounded Aeneas, removing him from the battle to the citadel of Pergamus where his temple stood.

ΙΡΙΣ...ΑΘΗΝΑ και ΗΡΑ...Iris, delivering a message from Zeus, prevents Athena and Hera from helping the Achaeans.So she said: "Whither are you twain hastening? Why is it that the hearts are mad within your breasts? The son of Cronos suffers not that you give succour to the Argives. For on this wise he threatens, even as he will bring it to pass: he will maim your swift horses beneath your chariot, and yourselves will he hurl from out the car, and will break in pieces the chariot. Ten rolling years would pass, and you be left still suffering from the wounds his thunderbolt would deal you .." (Iris to Athena and Hera. Homer, Iliad 8.415).

ΕΚΤΩΡ και ΑΝΔΡΟΜΑΧΗ... Hector leaves for battle.It is then his wife Andromache tells him: "You, Hector, are father and mother and brother to me, as well as my beloved husband.
