Christ the Redeemer

Christ the Redeemer, a colossal statue of Jesus, stands atop Mount Corcovado in Rio de Janeiro. Its origins date to just after World War I, when some Brazilians feared a “tide of godlessness.” They proposed a statue, which was ultimately designed by Heitor da Silva Costa, Carlos Oswald, and Paul Landowski. Construction began in 1926 and was completed five years later. The resulting monument stands 98 feet (30 meters) tall—not including its base, which is about 26 feet (8 meters) high—and its outstretched arms span 92 feet (28 meters). It is the largest Art Deco sculpture in the world. Christ the Redeemer is made of reinforced concrete and is covered in approximately six million tiles. Somewhat disconcertingly, the statue has often been struck by lightning, and in 2014 the tip of Jesus’s right thumb was damaged during a storm.

This stretched matte canvas brings a refined, gallery-ready presence to your wall with a clean white field and a single, gleaming central figure. The design’s jewel-toned gold and silver statue sits quietly yet confidently, making the piece feel like a quiet celebration of light and craftsmanship. Lightweight but substantial, the stretched canvas mounts flush to the wall and reads like a modern devotional — calm, minimalist, and quietly luxurious. It settles into living rooms, entryways, or offices where thoughtful objects and pared-back palettes rule. The subtle texture of the canvas surface and the taut, radial-pine frame give it a handcrafted touch that complements both contemporary and transitional interiors.
