The voyage to the Isle of Kyklos in one black-figure scene: harpies dive at the sail, tentacles coil from the wine-dark sea, and the company stands to arms on the deck of the eye-prowed trireme.
The company stands to arms amid Theron's stitched beasts — a winged manticore leaping overhead, a chimera and a minotaur closing in — beneath tiers of silent onlookers.
The horde breaks against the lambda wall in a single black-figure scene: trumpets and sparks on the heights, offerings smoking from the steam-altar — and the war-god watching from the summit.
The Theatre of Dionysus in three tiers: the god rides his panther above the architrave, the company holds the stage around a mouse-hero on his pedestal, and a guard drives the satyr chorus toward the wings.
Three black-figure registers from the summit cavern-temple: the shrine trials, the Ancient Sphinx in her fury, and the rites owed on Mount Phikion.
The living Games in three registers: heats and rival teams on the sacred sand, the torch-lit vaults where the fix is bought, and the bronze bull loosed on the closing ceremony.
Three registers of Hera's long wrath: the garlanded boy on the altar at Crisa, the draught drawn off in the dark, and the cave where the queen keeps her cages and her daughter.
The Serendib gorge from rim to shore: the Roc brooding over her nest, the diamond floor and the things that guard it, and the merchant who walked out with a stone in his fist.
The whole descent in one black-figure garden: Charon's ferry and the sown dead, Hades on his rock throne, the bone hounds and centaurs of Asphodel, and the Queen enthroned beneath her black pomegranate while someone rings the bell.
