An illustrated study of the evolution of the Christ image, from earliest symbols and metaphorical motifs such as the Shepherd and the Lamb, through the development of ‘true likeness’ portraits. In a variety of art styles, events of His life depict the paradox of Christ’s dual nature: human and divine, weak and powerful, victim and victor.

Great reference to add depth and originality to your religious designs. 79 images with thought provoking notes on the meanings behind the work. With angels, cherubs, Mary and other figures.
