Christus als Salvator Mundi c. 1588 - 1622

"Christus als Salvator Mundi" is an engraving by Jacques Granthomme, dating back to the late 16th or early 17th century. The piece depicts a bust-length portrait of Jesus Christ, adorned with a halo and holding a celestial globe, a symbol of his dominion over the universe. The detailed rendering of Jesus's face and flowing hair, along with the dramatic lighting and celestial imagery, illustrates the powerful and divine nature of Christ. This artwork is part of the Rijksmuseum collection and demonstrates a popular theme in religious art – the depiction of Christ as the Savior of the World.
