I've already seen some examples, like the one below:

That's nice description in theory, but I'd like to see also more JSF-related picture, with FacesServlet, PhaseListeners and other stuff to understand their role and sequence of calls in all these phases of lifecycle.

You can find here several: "jsf lifecycle" at images.google.com.

Not a picture, but a complete self-practice example with detailed explanations what exactly happens during every phase can be found here: Debug JSF lifecycle. You (at least, many do) may find it more useful than just a picture.

Thanks for the article.

Maybe you could check the Life Cycle of a JavaServer Faces Page tutorial from Java Sun. The tutorial has an life cycle image and some sections that explains some details of JSF.

Picture is good, but the tutorial itself is outdated. J2EE 1.4 is yet almost 10 years old. We're already at JEE 6.

A little bit of google-fu turned up this JSF story-board. About 2/3rds down the page is a sequence diagram which breaks down the lifecycle phases, their operations, and the different components that actually perform them.

HTH.
