Warner Sallman (April 30, 1892 – May 25, 1968) was an evangelical Christian painter from Chicago. He created commercial advertising images and worked as a freelance illustrator. He is most associated with his portrait, ''Head of Christ'' of which more than 500 million copies have been sold.〔(''Have You Seen This Man?'' ), Art, ''Newsweek'', July 2/July 9, 2007, p. 68 (The brief column replied to the title-question by saying ''"Probably, and looking exactly like this. Warner Sallman's 1940 oil painting ''The Head of Christ'' is believed to be the most reproduced religious work of art. ]It's been copied a billion times, if you include lamps, clocks and calendars."'')〕 In 1994, the ''New York Times'' wrote he is likely to be voted the "best-known artist of the century". ==Biography==
Warner Elias Sallman was the eldest of three children born to Elias Sallman and Christiane (Larson) Sallman who were immigrants from Finland and Sweden. He trained by apprenticing in local studios while attending the Chicago Art Institute at night. There he became a protégé of Walter Marshall Cluett, a newspaper illustrator noted for his work during the Spanish American War. He initially was affiliated with local studios until he opened his own. In 1916 he married Ruth Anderson, whom he met while both were singing in the church choir.〔(''Tribute to Warner Sallman'' )〕
