The Veiled Jesus Statue Introduction
The veiled Jesus statue, also known as “Veiled Christ”, is an outstanding work by Italian neoclassical sculptor Giovanni Strazza.
The greatest artistic feature of this statue is the shaping of the “veil”, which is also the part that tests the artists’ skills the most. The artists used superb skills to carve the marble into a soft and transparent veil texture.
Jesus’ facial features, expressions and body lines are vaguely visible under the veil, giving people a strong visual impact. In terms of religious allegory, Jesus’ face is covered by a veil, which symbolizes the mystery and holiness after his suffering, and also expresses a profound interpretation of religious themes such as life, death, and salvation.
Details of The Veiled Jesus Statue
The Veiled Jesus is made of natural Grade A marble, which has natural textures, making each sculpture unique. It also allows the statue to remain intact over the years. The sculpture shows the scene of Jesus lying on a bed wrapped in a veil after the crucifixion, realistically presenting the state of Jesus after the crucifixion. The crown of thorns and other torture tools are carved at the feet of Jesus. These details not only enrich the story of the work, but also further emphasize the suffering of Jesus.
