Cecilia Giménez, creator of viral ‘Monkey Christ’ restoration, dies aged 94

Tributes have been paid to the Spanish woman behind the viral “Monkey Christ” painting restoration, who has died aged ninety four.

Cecilia Giménez became world famous in 2012 after she attempted to retouch the Ecce Homo fresco in her local church in Borja, near Zaragoza.

Her repainting drew global attention and later boosted tourism to the town.

The mayor of Borja confirmed her death and praised her lifelong love of art and her dedication to the church.
