What did Jesus look like? / Joan E. Taylor. by Taylor, Joan E., author. London ; New York : Bloomsbury T & T Clark, [2018] Description:  xii, 269 pages : color illustrations ; 23 cm Contents:  Behold the man? The missing picture of Jesus' appearance -- The European Jesus : the letter of Lentulus -- True image : the legend of Veronica -- Jesus' self-portrait : Acheropitae -- Christ almighty : the Byzantine cosmocrator -- Boy wonder : the young God -- New Moses : the miracle-maker -- Beards and basics : the philosopher -- Ugly or unkempt? The wandering vagabond -- Flesh and bones : ethnicity, height, age and hair -- Top to toe : dressing Jesus -- What Jesus looked like. Summary:  "Jesus Christ is arguably the most famous man who ever lived. His image adorns countless churches, icons and paintings. He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art. Everyone can conjure up an image of Jesus: usually as a handsome, white man with flowing locks and pristine linen robes. But what did Jesus really look like? Is our popular image of Jesus overly westernized and untrue to historical reality? This question continues to fascinate. Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different version of this most famous of men. He may even have had short hair."
