    Pic 2/4 is a species of Cirsium (or possibly the closely related genus Carduus), but not C. vulgare, which has larger individual flowerheads not produced in dense clusters like yours has. Getting it identified won't be easy, as southern Europe is a centre of diversity in these genera (~ 60 species of Cirsium, 40 of Carduus).
