Soccer superstar David Beckham has added a black and white image of Jesus Christ to his collection of 17 tattoos as a tribute to his grandfather, who recently died.
The new image, drawn on Beckham’s lower right abdomen, is based on a painting called ‘The Man Of Sorrows’ by Catholic artist Matthew Brooks.

Thoughts? Are tattoos honouring the body? Can they remind you of something that is important to you? Perhaps they are even an interesting way to begin a faith conversation?
It will certainly be stuck with him for a long time!
