Christ the King Sacred Art

Please note: The canvas and print do not come mounted or framed.

Delve into the profound beauty and humility of Christ’s sacrifice with an exclusive portrait of Christ the King.

Be consoled in the gaze of Jesus with this stunning commissioned sacred art that beautifully captures the love of Christ for his Church through the sacrifice of his Passion.

In his Passion, Jesus displayed the true nature of his kingship: humble, self-sacrificial, and rooted in divine love. He laid down his life for each one of us, suffering a painful death so that we might have eternal life in him. His death on the Cross is the ultimate testament to his love for his bride, the Church.

Noteworthy symbolism in the painting:

• Printed in gold foil, the halo resembles a golden monstrance, to reflect the divine beauty of Jesus’sReal Presence in the Eucharist
• Jesus is holding the reed that the soldiers presented him with during his Passion after they had crowned him with thorns.
• Jesus is thought to have had a deep olive complexion and dark brown eyes and hair. His depiction in this painting is meant to strike a balance between familiarity and historical accuracy. 
• Besides adding depth and texture to the image, Jesus’  scarlet robe reveals his  vulnerability. Red symbolizes his Passion and is the liturgical color of Good Friday and the feast of Corpus Christi.
• Inspiring Catholic art is not reserved for use in churches and cathedrals—it is available for homes and offices as well. As the Catechism of the Catholic Church tells us, “Sacred art draws man to adoration, to prayer, and to the love of God” (CCC 2502).

This painting of Christ is a masterful addition to Ascension’s Sacred Art Collection of Holy Men and Women by Tianna Williams, a partnership between Tianna Williams, Fr. Josh Johnson, and Ascension to create beautiful sacred art that transforms Catholic churches and homes into places of deeper rest, prayer, and faith.

Immerse yourself in the beauty of the Catholic Faith and let the sacred imagery of Christ the King inspire your own spiritual pilgrimage.
