Christ 

Antonello da Messina's "Christ" is a devotional painting that depicts Jesus Christ in a realistic and solemn manner. He holds a crystal sphere, a symbol of the world, in his right hand, while raising his left hand in a gesture of blessing. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the depiction of Christ's features, his flowing hair and beard, and the intricate patterns of his robes. The painting was likely commissioned for a private chapel and exemplifies Antonello's mastery of oil painting and his innovative approach to portraiture during the early Renaissance.
