Open translation for this passage
τούτου δέ ἐστιν οὐ πόρρω θέατρον· ἐν δὲ αὐτῷ καὶ ἄλλα θέας ἄξια καὶ ἀνὴρ φονεύων ἐστὶν ἄνδρα, Ὀθρυάδαν τὸν Σπαρτιάτην Περίλαος Ἀργεῖος ὁ Ἀλκήνορος·
Two verbless/copular clauses are coordinated: θέατρον is the subject/predicate complement of ἐστιν in the first clause; in the second, ἀνὴρ is the subject of ἐστὶν, with φονεύων agreeing with it and ἄνδρα as its object. The final apposition identifies the depicted man as Othryadas and the killer as Perilaos, with Ἀργεῖος and ὁ Ἀλκήνορος modifying Περίλαος.

Περιλάῳ δὲ τούτῳ καὶ πρότερον ἔτι ὑπῆρχε Νεμείων ἀνῃρῆσθαι νίκην παλαίοντι.
The construction is difficult: ὑπῆρχε governs an articular infinitival notion, with Νεμείων νίκην as the accusative object of ἀνῃρῆσθαι and παλαίοντι agreeing with the dative Περιλάῳ; the exact semantic force of ὑπῆρχε is somewhat uncertain.
