Why Early Christians Painted Mary and Jesus Black | The Truth Hidden in Ancient Icons
Did early Christians really see Mary and Jesus as white?
Ancient Roman catacombs, early Christian icons, and medieval shrines reveal a different story.
In this video, we explore how the earliest Christian artwork consistently depicted Mary and the infant Jesus with dark skin—images that were openly worshiped for centuries. From underground Roman catacombs to Europe’s preserved Black Madonnas, these sacred images were never hidden. They were revered.
So why did the images change?
As religious and political power shifted, artists did not remove the shrines—they repainted them. The figures remained, but their skin was lightened. This video examines the historical evidence, the surviving Black Madonna statues, and the uncomfortable questions mainstream history often avoids.
Watch until the end to see why this matters—and what the whitewashing of sacred art reveals about power, identity, and faith.
