Justin Bieber New Tattoo: Ecce Homo (Photos)

Justin Beiber Gets New Jesus Tattoo on Leg

Justin Bieber continues the march into Marc Almond territory; in terms of ink, not music. Justin Bieber got another tattoo: an image of Jesus' face on his left calf.

The tattoo is based on a painting motif called "Ecce Homo" ("Behold the Man" in Latin), which depicts the scourging of Jesus Christ prior to his crucifixion. In the Passion Cycle, this is the first time Jesus is depicted as wearing the crown of thorns. Hieronymus Bosch

Justin Bieber's dad, with whom Beebs was photographed at the beach, is also no stranger to ink. You can see photos of Justin Bieber's new Ecce Homo tattoo in the rather over-enthusiastic ITN video below.

How Many Tattoos Does Justin Beiber Have?

Justin Bieber has three tattoos: the new leg tattoo, a dove on his hip, the Hebrew name "Yeshua" (Jesus) on his ribcage, under his left arm.
