D’oH..forgot the identify part.
1 is a Ouroboros and 2 is pic of Friedrich August Kekule von Stradonitz.
Kekulé claims he thought of the shape of benzene after having a day dream of a snake swallowing its own tail.

That’s Friedrich Kekule and that’s a serpent catching its own tail — supposed to be a dream he had that was the inspiration for the structure of benzene.

1.Ouroboros
2.Kekulé

Connect-> Kekulé’s freakish dream about a self-devouring snake is said to have inspired him to discover the ring shape of benzene molecule :P
