In 1842, Belgian sculptor Joseph Geefs created The Genius of Evil—a marble figure that became one of the most intriguing religious sculptures of the 19th century. A later version was created by his brother Guillaume Geefs in 1848.

The sculpture’s beauty, symbolism, and controversial history made it unforgettable.
