The first image shows Romulus and Remus, the twin founders of Rome. The second image depicts Thor, the Norse god of thunder, with his hammer rising from water. The third image represents Odin's sacrifice, where he hangs from Yggdrasil for wisdom. The fourth image might show Morozko or a winter spirit in a cold, ghostly scene. The fifth image is of Apollo and Daphne, where Daphne transforms into a laurel tree.
