Retour du Christ

Jesus Christ appears in radiant glory above a quiet city of rooftops, towers, and mountain silhouettes, His outstretched form filling the heavens with overwhelming light. Below, an elderly traveler stands in the street with a suitcase, dwarfed by the divine appearing and positioned as a witness to the promised coming of the Son of Man. The crescent moon, dim streets, and glowing windows heighten the contrast between ordinary earthly life and the sudden revelation of Christ from above. The artwork evokes the biblical hope of the Second Coming, when Christ returns visibly and gloriously, not as a hidden teacher but as the exalted Lord before whom the world must respond. It is well suited for teaching on end times, Christian hope, watchfulness, judgment, and the assurance that history belongs to the risen Christ.
