Vincentian priest Pedro Maria Boss first suggested placing a Christian monument on Mount Corcovado in the mid-1850s. Emperor Pedro II from Portugal decided to stay and rule Brazil and wanted a statue of his daughter Princess Isabel built to commemorate the end of slavery. He left his daughter, the princess regent running Queluz Palace in Portugal. The Palace near Lisbon was attacked by his brother who felt he should have power, and Pedro had to return and fight to reinstate his daughter. She refused the statue and in 1888 stated that the statue be that of Christ the true redeemer of men (meaning all sexes/everybody).
