 A very notable masterpiece in Brazil, Christ the Redeemer is an Art Deco sculpture of Jesus Christ. It was made by French stone worker Paul Landowski and worked by Brazilian specialist Heitor da Silva Costa, as a team with the French architect Albert Caquot.

Made of fortified cement and soapstone, it weighs 635 metric tons and is situated at the pinnacle of the 700-meter Corcovado mountain in the Tijuca Forest National Park sitting above the city of Rio de Janeiro.
