  1. Dear Matt, greetings from France !
    The frieze depict the combat between Herakles (name above) and the River God Achelous (name under, writen in greek capitals reading: Axelôos) lying on the ground while Herakles steps on him. The Hero carries the body of Deianira in his arms.
    All is explained in the wiki:

    nice frieze, would like to see more of the same sculptor (Grayser Hofe ?).
    cheers.
    Franck.
