Who do you guys think this man is?

It's not Jesus. Jesus was Jewish. >>3504614 is closer in representation to what he probably looked like than anything in a Christian workbook. Actually, if you look back at the very first pictures of Jesus, they look just like the Middle Eastern people because... Well. That's what he was.

Do you think that the artwork morphed overtime to present a more appealing figure to Europeans during the spread of Christianity? And perhaps it just kept evolving over time... Or do you think it's modeled after an actual man? If the latter's the case, I'd like to know who it is, but I don't think that's the situation.

I'm talking about the more Caucasian images of Jesus, btw, not this specific image in particular. The more 'modern' versions of him.
