Our Lord Jesus Christ 1886 - 1894

James Tissot's "Our Lord Jesus Christ" from 1886-1894 depicts a solemn and introspective Jesus, his hands clasped over his heart, embodying the weight of his divine mission. The painting's realism and detailed rendering of the figure's clothing were typical of Tissot's style, which aimed for historical accuracy in its portrayal of biblical scenes. This work, part of a larger series of paintings, captures the emotional depth of Christ's personality, and its powerful imagery resonates with viewers even today.
