Precious Blood

Another Christ – Chambers


A Roman Catholic priest elevates the chalice containing the Blood of Christ during the Consecration at Mass in this liturgical artwork by Chambers. The title of the image, Alter Christus or Another Christ, refers to the priest's role as another Jesus Christ on earth with the power to change bread and wine into the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Our Lord through a process known liturgically as Transubstantiation.
