Various Jesus representations



Jesus looks pretty fresh and youthful in his late Roman toga. It was simply inconceivable for the people, who were still too influenced by Roman culture, how the son of a god could be so wretched, dirty, unkempt, uncombed, unshaven, emaciated and unwashed.



Jesus, the apostles and their symbols. Almost a pagan representation.



Only the Gothic Era, which actually accomplished so much in architecture, made this miserable figure out of him in its dark worldview. It is partly incomprehensible how such a religion as life-denying as Christianity could conquer the world. One should think that life is beautiful. And although it was never easy to survive, one would have expected that people would enjoy their lives.
