About This Item

Travel to Rio de Janeiro

Die Statue ist 30 Meter hoch und ruht auf einem 8 Meter hohen Sockel, der auch eine Kapelle für 150 Personen beherbergt. Die Spannweite der Arme beträgt 28 Meter, das Gesamtgewicht der Statue beträgt 1145 Tonnen. Der Kopf und die Hände wurden nach Gipsmodellen gefertigt, die der französische Bildhauer Paul Landowski in seinem Atelier nahe Paris hergestellt hatte. Baumaterial ist Stahlbeton, der mit einem Mosaik aus Speckstein überzogen ist.

 

The statue is 39.6 metres (130 ft) tall, including its 9.5 meter (31 feet) pedestal, and 30 metres (98 ft) wide. It weighs 635 tons (700 short tons), and is located at the peak of the 700 metres (2,300 ft) Corcovado mountain in the Tijuca Forest National Park overlooking the city. It is one of the tallest of its kind in the world. The statue of Cristo de la Concordia  in Cochabamba, Bolivia, is slightly taller, standing at 40.44 metres (132.7 ft) tall with its 6.24 metres (20.5 ft) pedestal and 34.20 metres (112.2 ft) wide. A symbol of Christianity, the statue has become an icon of Rio and Brazil.[2] It is made of reinforced concrete and soapstone, and was constructed between 1922 and 1931.
