MemberNeomorphMay 02, 2017This is one of the paintings hanging on the wall in the background during the scene where Weyland is interviewing David. It is "Nativity" by Piero Della Francesca. This bring back to my mind the suggestion of what motivated the Engineers to change their minds about the Human race 2000 years ago in Prometheus. It is also very important to note that everything that was being fed to David during his "infancy", all this stimuli like this religious painting and the Ozymandias poem among them, seem to have left an imprint on David's mind, and he is going make decisions inspired by them during the events of "Alien: Covenant". Is this referring in a very twisted way to the birth of the Xenomorph? Or this a clue for the far reaching religious parable Ridley Scott has been teasing us with?
