Religius Art is the art visualizing the majesty, the almighty, and the infinity of the divine world. The art itself can move the recognition of the human relationship with God. Religious arts do not always aim to the Bible verses directly, but they may take subjects from common of daily situations used as metaphors in order to create human recognition of the divine. Religious art opens up the space for the usage of code language starting from personal codes into universal ones. The expression of Jesus’s figure on illustrations have become dominant among the Christian Fine Arts. These are not just because Jesus is already known as the central character in Christian teachings, but also the figure itself can be manifested into art work.  Keywords: Religius Art, Illustration, Jesuss Figure
