The statue was designed by a Brazilian by the name of Heitor da Silva Costa. As well as sculpt the 38 meter high statue he also oversaw the construction from 1926 to 1931 as he was also an engineer. The span of the statue from finger tip to finger tip is an incredible 28 metres. At the bottom of the Jesus statue there is also a small chapel which can accommodate around 150 worshippers.
