Culturally speaking, we have come to understand that Jesus looked very much like a white man with facial hair and was clothed in a white or cream robe. For individuals who believe in Jesus that was always basic information that they certainly knew about. However, others supposed he looked like a person from one of those historic paintings or an image of God’s intended existence. We consider this information to be correct. However, historiography and a professor at the King’s College by the name of  Joan Taylor found evidence that Jesus did not actually look like the images that we all know and are familiar with.

This is the effect of all the images we see today in many different places.
