Is Christ the Redeemer (statue) in Rio de Janeiro really the symbol of Christ?

I’ve read things on this saying it is and read some things on it saying it’s not. Can someone help me figure it out once and for all? Thanks

Answer #1

Yes it is the statue of Jesus Christ himself.

Answer #2

Cool! Thanks for clearing that up. :)

Answer #3

How can that be, it’s only a representation of what the artist sees. No one really knows what the Christ looks like. He had no picture taken of him, or painted of him, or carved of him, so how can one say it is of himself. Maybe the artist put his own face on that Rio de Janeiro statue.

Answer #4

He had/has lots of painting of Him.

Answer #5

its a “symbol” of Jesus just like all the other paintings
