Synopsis by Betsy Boyd
The Face: Jesus in Art provides a thorough lesson in art history, exploring the diverse and numerous artistic representations of Jesus Christ rendered over the last 2,000 years. The film discusses the influence these depictions of Christ have had on the world's aesthetic, and also analyzes the varying stylistic interpretations of the man millions call the son of God. Viewers feast their eyes on Michelangelo's revered work, the catacombs of Rome, the contents of Chartres Cathedral, and much more.
