Famous classic design large size Brazil Jesus statue

The Brazilian Christ Statue, located on the top of Corcovado Hill in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is one of the world’s most famous large-scale Jesus Christ sculptures. On July 7, 2007, the Brazilian Christ statue was named one of the world’s new seven wonders.

The Brazilian Christ statue was completed in 1931, with a total height of 38 meters, a distance of 23 meters between the left and right hands, and a weight of about 1145 tons. Designed by the Polish-French artist Paul Landovsky, he first built fragments of the statue in France from 1926 to 1931 and then shipped them to Brazil for assembly. The whole was made of cement and took four years to build. The base of the Christ statue is a Catholic church that can accommodate 150 people.

The statue of Jesus Christ in a robe with arms raised affectionately overlooks the beautiful panoramic view of Rio de Janeiro down the mountain, heralding the spirit of fraternity and praise for independence. The statue of Christ in Brazil faces the rippling Atlantic Ocean with open arms looking from a distance, like a huge cross, looking solemn and majestic.

As a landmark building in Rio, the Brazilian Christ Statue is the most intuitive embodiment of the Christian culture in Brazil, guiding Brazilians to continue to move forward on the path of Christianity. Under the influence of secularization today, the Brazilian Christ statue, as a striking cultural symbol, always reminds people of the sacredness of Christianity and always shows the glory of Jesus Christ.
