What Did Jesus Look Like? Hardback
by Professor Joan E. (King's College London, UK) Taylor
Hardback
Description
Jesus Christ is arguably the most famous man who ever lived.
His image adorns countless churches, icons, and paintings.
He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art.
Everyone can conjure an image of Jesus: usually as a handsome, white man with flowing locks and pristine linen robes. But what did Jesus really look like? Is our popular image of Jesus overly westernized and untrue to historical reality?This question continues to fascinate.
Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different vision of this most famous of men.
He may even have had short hair.
