Controversial Poster of Jesus Sparks Outrage in Spain

A poster in Seville depicting a young, handsome Jesus has sparked controversy, with some criticizing it as inappropriate and others defending it as contemporary sacred art. The artist, Salustiano García Cruz, used his son as the model and dismissed critics as old-fashioned, stating that the elements used in the painting have been present in sacred art for centuries. The General Council of Brotherhoods, which commissioned the poster, has ignored calls to replace it before Holy Week, while the mayor of Seville labeled the controversy as "artificial."
