Master Class: Juan Esteban Constaín

How did the first Christians, in the years when the faith was developing, conceive the image of Christ? How did this image evolve in the first three centuries of Christianity?Juan Esteban Constaín (Colombia) has carried out an extensive investigation in preparation for his most recent book, El hijo del hombre, a historical and literary essay on early Christianity. However, not all his research went into the work. At this masterclass he offers an aesthetic and symbolic reading of the iconography of Jesus, with the projection of images of frescos found in Roman and Syrian catacombs, photos of mosaics, tablets and other images rescued from his work, which take us back to the days in which faith began to flow through the image of Jesus Christ.
