This 290/2 Christ of the Deep statue comes in fiberglass and painted by talented Italian painters from Art Studio Demetz (Italy) using only the finest artistic oil. It is also available in painted, white, bronze or silver fiberglass.

“Christ of the Deep” refers to a famous underwater sculpture depicting Jesus Christ, located in the Florida Key National Marine Sanctuary. The Christ of the Deep sculpture was created by Italian artist Guido Galletti in 1961. There are several copies of the statue placed in various locations around the world. The original nine foot bronze sculpture symbolizes peace of mankind from its unusual setting - beneath the ocean at Key Largo Dry Rocks off John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park. It is known as the Il Christo Degli Abissi or in English - Christ of the Abyss.
