Description
Kiss of Judas Sculpture Overview
The Kiss of Judas sculpture DZC96 is carved from marble and depicts the biblical moment when Judas approaches Jesus and uses a kiss as the signal by which Jesus is identified for arrest.
The Kiss of Judas, also known in Christian art as the Betrayal of Christ, combines physical closeness with an act of betrayal. This contrast gives the scene strong emotional and dramatic tension.
The sculpture presents Jesus with a calm and solemn expression while Judas leans toward Him in the act of the kiss. Their facial expressions, body positions, hands, and flowing robes create a clear narrative that can be understood from different viewing angles.
The entire marble Kiss of Judas sculpture can be carved as a complete figurative composition and installed on a matching marble base. It is suitable for church courtyards, Catholic churches, monastery gardens, religious sculpture gardens, biblical theme parks, museums, and other spiritual or commemorative spaces.
D&Z Sculpture supports complete customization of size, marble color, material, figure details, base design, inscriptions, and installation requirements.
Kiss of Judas Sculpture Story and Biblical Background
The Kiss of Judas is one of the best-known scenes in the New Testament.
According to the biblical account, Jesus was in the Garden of Gethsemane when Judas arrived with a group sent to arrest Him. Judas had agreed to identify Jesus, and the sign he used was a kiss.
A gesture normally associated with greeting and friendship therefore became a symbol of betrayal.
The Jesus and Judas kiss statue captures this contradiction in a single moment. Judas moves close to Jesus, while Jesus remains composed and aware of what is happening.
Through facial expressions, body language, and the close position of the two figures, the sculpture expresses themes of trust, betrayal, sacrifice, human choice, and destiny.
This powerful narrative has made the Kiss of Judas an enduring subject in Christian art and religious sculpture.
Kiss of Judas Sculpture Detail Design
The composition mainly consists of the figures of Jesus and Judas, their facial expressions, robes, hands, feet, and the supporting marble base.
- Jesus Facial Detail: Jesus is carved with a solemn and compassionate expression. His eyes and relaxed facial structure create a sense of calm restraint.
- Judas Facial Detail: Judas is shown leaning closely toward Jesus. His expression and body position create visual tension beneath the apparently intimate gesture.
- Kissing Composition: The close contact between the two figures forms the visual center of the kiss statue, making the biblical story immediately recognizable.
- Drapery Detail: The robes follow the natural structure of the body. Deep folds and layered carving help transform solid marble into the appearance of soft, flowing fabric.
- Hand and Foot Detail: Fingers, joints, feet, hair, beard, and other small areas are carefully refined to improve realism when viewed from close range.
- Marble Base Detail: A matching marble base provides stability while maintaining the formal and dignified character of the sculpture.
Kiss of Judas Sculpture Material and Carving Process
The DZC96 marble Kiss of Judas statue is made from carefully selected natural marble.
The stone is chosen according to the required size, color, grain, and structural condition. For large sculptures, selecting a sufficiently large and stable marble block is especially important.
Our sculptors combine traditional hand carving with modern tools to shape the figures, robes, facial details, and base.
- Marble Selection: A suitable marble block is selected according to the final dimensions and design.
- Rough Carving: Large sections of excess stone are removed to establish the main proportions and overall pose.
- Detail Carving: The sculptors refine the faces, hair, beard, hands, feet, robes, folds, and other visual details.
- Hand Polishing: The surface is gradually polished according to the required finish while keeping the natural marble texture visible.
This process allows the finished marble Jesus statue composition to retain both detailed craftsmanship and the natural character of the stone.
