AI overview
I cannot write an accurate overview of Christology based solely on an image caption, as it contains only a painting title and artist attribution with no explanatory text. To provide an accurate and factually-grounded explanation, I would need substantive written context about what Christology is and why it matters.

Christology is a branch of Christian theology that concerns Jesus. Different denominations have different views on questions such as whether Jesus was human, divine, or both, and as a messiah what his role would be in the freeing of the Jewish people from foreign rulers or in the prophesied Kingdom of God, and in the salvation from what would otherwise be the consequences of sin.
