One of the most popular artistic representations, not only in the Jesus tattoo but in the entire art world, is Jesus dying on the cross. He is half naked, alone or accompanied by María, showing his sores and with an expression of pain on his face. These types of tattoos are usually large and very detailed.

The crown of thorns

Related to the death of Jesus are the tattoos in which he is shown with the crown of thorns. Although it is said that the original purpose of this object was to humiliate and wound Jesus, the truth is that later, in art, it has been used as a symbol to contrast the simplicity of Jesus with the other kings (in a similar way to when Indiana Jones chooses the wooden cup at the end of The last crusade).

In Jesus tattoo designs, however, this symbol is used to relate to the pain and sacrifice of Jesus.

The sacred heart of Jesus

Perhaps the kindest among Jesus tattoo designs, the sacred heart represents him, normally, with a heart on fire in his chest and a benevolent expression. This motif has been used for centuries to symbolize the love of Jesus for the rest of humanity.

The pantocrator

Finally, Another of the representations of Jesus is that of the pantocrator, which comes from Byzantine and Romanesque art, and which is wonderful for a tattoo with strong lines and raised colors. In this representation of Jesus, he is always represented with his right hand raised to give the blessing and with the gospel on the left.
