EDITORS COMMENTS
Brazil's Iconic Symbol: The Statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro This photograph showcases the iconic Statue of Christ the Redeemer, located atop Mount Corcovado in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The statue, created by French sculptor Paul Landowski and built in collaboration with Brazilian engineers Heitor da Silva Costa and Albert Caquot, with the face sculpted by Romanian artist Gheorghe Leonida, stands as a testament to the rich cultural fusion that characterizes Brazil. Completed on October 12, 1931, the monumental statue measures approximately 30 meters (98 feet) tall, with its arms spread wide in an outstretched embrace. The statue's open arms have become a symbol of peace, protection, and welcome to visitors and residents alike. The Statue of Christ the Redeemer is a marvel of engineering and artistry, constructed during the 1920s and 1930s. Landowski's design was inspired by the Christian belief in the redeeming power of love and compassion. The statue's head alone weighs nine tons, while its hands and feet each weigh six tons. Mount Corcovado, a mountain range in the Tijuca Forest National Park, offers a breathtaking backdrop for this iconic landmark. Visitors can reach the summit via a scenic train ride, taking in the stunning views of Rio de Janeiro and the Atlantic Ocean below. This photograph, taken in the 1930s, captures the essence of Brazil's vibrant history and cultural heritage, making it a must-see destination for travelers from around the world.
