Photograph of the drawing "Jesus" by Solomon, depicting the head of Christ along with latin text, ca.1899. The head appears to be drawn in charcoal, depicting Christ with lightly colored hair looking off to the left. A halo is visible circumscribed around the head, interlaced with a loop of thorns. The latin text at the bottom is transalatable to "Jesus -- Be thou faithful unto death and I will give thee a Crown of Life".
