Jesus is one of the most often portrayed figures of all time. But what do all of his faces, in art from different ages and around the world, tell us about him? In Faces of Christ images of Jesus are used to explore his life and legacy, including Jesus as shepherd, Jesus as victor, Jesus as broken, etc. With illuminating text, this book is both visually stunning and textually inspiring. Jane Williams makes no claim to be an art expert but as a Christian theologian she uses the portrayal of Jesus in art to investigate his life and character.

Faces of Christ is bound in smaller format hardcover, measuring about 6 inches wide by 7.75 inches tall. The full-color images are presented on glossy, smooth paper to display them well.
