According to Greek mythology (Roman as well), Charon was described as an old man who ferried the souls of th dead across the River Styx and Acheron to Hades. To be able to get on Charon's boat, a dead person need to have a coin for the passage. Thus it was customary for a coin to be placed in the mouth of a dead perosn before burial. In this illustration that deates to around 1900, the ferryman Charon is seen selection those who have the coin and therefore can come on his boat. In the distance to theleft are two figures - the Trojan hero Aeneas, whom Romans claim as their ancestor, accompanied by the Sibyl as she takes him through the underworld.

This images shows Spiel der Wellen (Playing in the Waves) by Arnold Bocklin, housed in the Neue Pinokothek in Munich, Germany. It was created in 1883. A rather ordinary episode in the artists life appears to have provided the immediate inspiration for this composition. Bocklin had been swimming in Italy with the family of Anton Dohrn, the zoologist who commissioned Hans von MareessOarsmen. Dohrn dove into the waves, swam some distance underwater, and suddenly resurfaced near the women in the bathing party. The ladies surprise caught Bocklins fancy, and he decided to portray a similar scene drawn from the world of mythical underwater creatures. His composition thrusts the viewer into the rising and falling waves, which are shown without the slightest hint of land in the distance. Dohrns features can actually be seen in the face of the triton, whose freely expressed and ribald intentions make this the most playful of Bocklins works.
