"Serene Christ" of hand carved golden-colored soapstone.  Carved by Claudinho, a Brazilian artist.  Claudinho transforms soapstone into the vivid visage of Christ in this admirable sculpture.  Chaudinho's artistry is evident in the detailed depiction of Christ's serene smile as he carves it from a single piece of soapstone.
