Telephus Frieze: King Teuthras finds Auge on the shore (Pergamon Altar, panel 10)
Unknown (Pergamon Altar sculptors), c. 160 BC
Panel 10 of the Pergamon Altar's Telephus frieze: King Teuthras discovers Auge stranded on the Mysian shore — the reception that plants Arcadian Auge at his Caicus court and sets the Pergamene dynastic myth in motion. Now in the Pergamonmuseum, Berlin.
The Marriage of Telephus and Auge prevented
Edward Francis Burney, c. 1800–1820
Burney's Met drawing stages the interrupted wedding at Teuthras' Mysian court — the king who would marry Auge to Telephus without knowing they are mother and son, until recognition breaks the rite.
