This awe-inspiring 19" white marble Christus statue depicts Jesus Christ just as the scriptures describe Him, beckoning to us with open arms in a most pleasant manner, as if saying: "Come unto me."
The original Christus statue by Sculptor Albert Thorvaldsen (1770-1844) was made of plaster in 1823 and was used to create the 11-foot marble version in 1839 that stands today in the Church of Our Lady in Copenhagen, Denmark. Another marble copy of the orginal stands on Temple Square in Salt Lake City.
This marvelous work of inspired art has now been painstakingly created in exact detail as the original. This heirloom quality statue is made of pristine white marble and stands 19" tall, 13" wide at the hands and weighs 20 lbs.
