Red-figure vase painting of two cloud nymphs (Nephelai) who are pouring rain from their pitcher over Alcmene, mother of Heracles, who raises her hand to the heavens in an appeal to Zeus.

Fresco of the three Graces (Greek: Kharites) in a very iconic pose. Two of them are facing the viewer while one of them is turning her beautiful backside towards us. All of them are in the nude, beautiful examples of the female form.
