“Stephen teaches at the nearby Clifton School. He continues to be moody and detached. After class the Master of the School gives him a letter for the Freeman\u2019s Journal<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps it is this \u201cdelivering a message\u201d that prompted me to think of the episode, as an \u201cAnnunciation\u201d, even though Stephen is no virgin and Mr Deasy makes an unconvincing angel \u2026 It\u2019s an insecure base, but I chose to build the picture on it, borrowing from works by Fra Angelico and Piero di Cosimo. Falling coins hint vaguely at Stephen\u2019s guilt at being seduced by gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
