Citroen DS - the “Goddess”

“The bodywork, the lines of union are touched, the uphol­stery palpated, the seats tried, the doors caressed, the cushions fondled; before the wheel, one pretends to drive with one’s whole body. The object here is totally prosti­tuted, appro­priated: origin­ating from the heaven of Metropolis , the Goddess is in a quarter of an hour mediatized, actual­izing through this exorcism the very essence of petit-bourgeois advancement.”  -  Roland Barthes
