This question seems to fall into an XSLT category rather than XSL-FO.
One comment I would make is that the structure of your XML is weak. If
picture1 and description1 belong together, the xml should indicate that.
You could add a another layer like this
<list>
<list-item>
<list-label>picture1.eps</list-label>
<list-text>description1</list-text>
</list-item>
<list-item>
<list-label>picture2.eps</list-label>
<list-text>description2</list-text>
</list-item>
....
</list>
Or you could make 'label' or 'text' an attribute of the other. I don't
know the details of your problem domain so you would have to make the
determination.
If your xml format is locked, then you need to look at using the sibling
axis in Xpath to get some association between the labels and the text.
That question belongs in an XSLT list though.

Subject: Problem with transformation
Hi all,
I'm trying to transform the XML snippet below to a FO table with a width
of 3 columns. The list contain a maximum of 9 elements. Each cell should
contain an image and its description. I would appreciate any advice on
how to implement such a transformation.
<snippet>
...
<list>
<list-label>picture1.eps</list-label>
<list-text>description</list-text>
<list-label>picture2.eps</list-label>
<list-text>description</list-text>
<list-label>picture3.eps</list-label>
<list-text>description</list-text>
<list-label>picture4.eps</list-label>
<list-text>description</list-text>
...
</list>
...
</snippet>
Regards,
Johan Andersson
