"The Appearance of Christ Before the People" is considered by the magnum opus of the Russian painter Alexander Andreyevich Ivanov. Also known as "The Apparition of the Messiah," this large oil on canvas painting took twenty years to complete. The narrative of this painting was taken from the first chapter of the Gospel according to John. John the Baptist is the central figure in the painting. He's wearing an animal skin, standing among a crowd of people on the banks of the River Jordan. Jesus is walking from the distance towards them. John the Baptist is gesturing to the people that the Messiah is approaching. The painting is massive in its scale, subject and visual impact. Truly, a masterpiece.
