A woman in a rippling stream with a red carp, from Jan Vermeer's Girl with a Red Hat. The monolithic head of the Unborn Buddha in water with rocks and a waterfall behind. Bacchus as a bull with four green snakes around its horns and a twilight sky. The feathered serpent Mayan god Quetzalcoatl or Kukulcan at the Nunnery at Uxmal. A bear skull in a pine tree at sunrise, a frozen lake with reindeer, from the rituals of the circumpolar bear cult. Lord of Light, a Tang dynasty Buddha haloed by a solar eclipse. A Halloween tree with jack-o'-lanterns and a full moon. An orange-robed Buddhist monk in a garden with a pink dawn sky. The Prophet Muhammad's vision of many faces of the Angel Gabriel spread across the sky. A crow standing before a red ochre rock painting of a Chinese sun symbol from the Neolithic. A mother with a swan's head breast-feeding in reeds, inspired by the archaeology of the Neolithic of Old Europe. An ancient Greek ship covered with vines, a bear, a lion, and dolphins, from the legend of the kidnap of Dionysos by pirates.
