Mr. Ballard, you are wonderful

(Carlo Crivelli, 1486, The Annunciation, The National Gallery, London)

«Perish the thought, and let the exquisite bird be itself, and nothing more or less than itself. What could be more natural, and more mysterious, than a peacock and a loaf of bread appearing on the scene to celebrate the forthcoming birth of the Saviour?»

(JG Ballard, Miracles of life, pág. 155)
