  • “To Express Ourselves in Accordance with the Paradox of the Incarnation
    “To express ourselves in accordance with the paradox of the Incarnation we can certainly say that God gave himself a human face, the Face of Jesus, and consequently, from now on, if we truly want to know the Face of God, all we have to do is to contemplate the Face of Jesus! In his Face we truly see who God is and what he looks like!” Pope Benedict XVI said on September 6, 2006 at his general audience on St. Peter’s Square. One week earlier on September 1, 2006, in the presence of the Archbishop of Chieti-Vasto Bruno Forte, Pope Benedict was the first pope in over 400 years to kneel before the mysterious face of Christ on the holy veil, or “Volto Santo,” which is venerated today in the Abruzzi town of Manoppello. It has been venerated there ever since it was moved after having been kept for centuries in St. Peter’s until 1527. Since September 1, 2006, the talk of the human face of God became a kind of mark in the pontificate of the Pope from Germany. In commemoration of the 10th anniversary of this event, we asked Archbishop Bruno Forte about his memories of this day. CNA: Your Grace, ten years ago, Pope Benedict XVI visited the holy veil, which is called the “Volto Santo” in Manoppello and was long known as the “Veil of Veronica”, on your invitation as the first Pope in over 400 years to visit. You stood one meter away from the Holy Father on this historic encounter.

We adore Thee, oh Christ, we praise Thee, because, by Thy holy cross, Thou hast redeemed the world. My wandering attention always circled back to the sixth station. Veronica wipes the face of Jesus. There must be this record of His features somewhere—map of His facial hair. How high the forehead of Christ? How wide set the eyes? What the noble slope of his nose? I read in an obscure passage of a dog-eared Jerusalem guidebook that the cloth of Veronica was in possession of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate. With just one day in Jerusalem to explore on my own, I take upon myself a pilgrim challenge to locate and view the cloth. Years ago, in a Mexican market of colonial antiques, one tiny object seemed almost to emit some force to hold my focus, insist I take it home.

  • Bulletin 12Th July 2020
    Bulletin 12th July 2020 Bulletin 12th July 2020 Saint Veronica….source Catholic.Org…..is known as the woman who offered a cloth to Jesus so He could wipe His face on the way to His crucifixion. The cloth is believed to exist today in the Vatican and is considered one of the most treasured relics of the Church. Saint Veronica is not mentioned in the Bible, but is known to us by Catholic tradition and in the Sixth Station of the Cross, “Veronica Wipes the Face of Jesus.” Legend states that as Christ was walking to Calvary, his face dripping with sweat and blood, Saint Veronica, a bystander, was moved with compassion. She approached Jesus and offered Him a cloth, likely her veil, which He accepted and used to wipe His face. The image of his face was subsequently imprinted on the cloth. There are no legends from the period which speak of Veronica either before or after her act of compassion. We do not know when she was born or when she died. She is literally lost to history. However, the cloth may still exist today, kept safe at St. Peter’s in Rome. This particular cloth bearing the likeness of Christ’s face, although ancient and difficult to distinguish, is considered one of the most treasured relics in the Vatican. According to legend, it is the original relic, although throughout the ages many copies were created and some were passed along as genuine. Most of what we know about the veil was recorded in the medieval period, although it was first mentioned as being in the hands of Pope John VII in the early eighth century.

  • Yellowing of Ancient Linen and Its Effects on the Colours of the Holy Face of Manoppello

During the centuries, the yellowing of the linen threads has changed the aspect of the original face, in particular producing unnatural colours of the eyes. Indeed, as inferred by some experimental evidences, both on a microscopic and a macroscopic scale, the eyes were probably originally blue. Blue was the colour mainly affected by the yellowing of the linen threads, leading to greenish shades not compatible with human irises’ colours. Thus, we think that this finding compelled an artist to retouch the eyes’ irises with brown colour. The theoretical analysis of degradation times of the cellulose contained in starched linen indicates that, at ambient temperature, the yellowing takes about ten centuries to reach 95% of its maximum. Due to its peculiar optical characteristics and historical vicissitudes, the Veil of Manoppello likely coincides with the Veronica’s Veil, the alleged relic of the face of Christ impressed during his Passion, just before his crucifixion.

The aim of the present paper is to compare the restored face of the Veil with that visible on the Turin Shroud. In particular, the paper focuses on assessing whether the two images can be superimposed, i.e., whether they are different images of the same face. Indeed, some scholars have suggested that the Veil of Manoppello and the Turin Shroud show different images of the same face. We demonstrate that the face of the Turin Shroud, after a logarithmic transformation of the intensity and the correction of the background noise, shows cheeks’ profiles, not visible before the digital processing, which overlap very well with those of the restored face of the Veil of Manoppello.

Its particular characteristic is being semitransparent. The face is visible on both sides (front–back) and, depending on the lighting and observation conditions, shows some differences in the anatomical details. An analysis of this icon has allowed us to clarify some aspects of the possible physical mechanism underlying its unusual optical behavior. It is a linen fiber fabric consisting of very thin threads with a thickness of about 0.1 mm, separated by distances even double the thickness of the threads, so that about 42% of the Veil is empty space. The fibers constituting the linen threads may have been cemented by an organic substance of chemical composition similar to cellulose, presumably starch, eliminating the air between them. Such a structure causes the optical behavior of the medium to be intermediate between those of a translucent medium (thin cemented linen threads) and a transparent one (empty space between the threads).

  • THE VEIL of VERONICA: FACT OR FICTION? ©2009 John Iannone
    THE VEIL OF VERONICA: FACT OR FICTION? ©2009 John Iannone "Your Face, O Lord, will I still seek; hide not your Face from me." Psalm 27: 8-9 Introduction: In Churches around the world we find an early practice formalized much later in the Medieval period called the Stations of the Cross (14 of them) which depict visually various incidents during the passion and death of Jesus until His entombment. The Church dedicates the Sixth Station to Veronica Wiping The Face of Jesus. The legend says that Jesus, as a reward to Veronica for wiping the sweat and blood from His face with her veil, left His imprint miraculously on the linen. Is this an actual event or just a pious story? And what do we know of this Veil on which Jesus is believed to have left His image? We will divide this question into two parts. In the first part we will discuss whether there is any historical or traditional basis for the Legend of Veronica. In the second part we will examine two claims. One claim is that the Veronica is, today, in Rome. The second claim is that the Veronica is in the town of Manoppello, Italy in a Capuchin Monastery approximately 150 miles East of Rome since the early 17th century. PART I: Is There An Historical or Traditional Basis for The Core Legend? The Veronica Veil is often confused with the Sudarium Christi. However, the Veronica Veil is an imaged cloth that allegedly touched Jesus during His walk to Golgotha while He was still alive.

  • Manoppello, the Holy Face
    Shroud of Turin & Manoppello Image Comparison &3D analysis Or the magic of ImageJ By O.K. 1 There are currently two images of Christ which are widely considered acheiropoieta, that is ‘not made by human hand.’ 1. The first one is well known Shroud of Turin. 2. The other image that is suggested by some to be miraculous, is the Image of Manopello, suggested by some (especially Father Heinrich Pfeiffer) to be the original Veil of Veronica. 2 The relations between the two objects are complex and controversial, and I don’t want to discuss them fully in this paper. Virtually unknown in the English world (in large part thanks to the authority of Ian Wilson, who dismissed it in his 1991 Holy Faces Secret Places, for several reasons I also will not discuss in this paper) until recent, the Veil enjoys great popularity in Poland (overshadowing Sudarium of Oviedo for example), where several popular publications by both foreing (Badde, Gaeta, Resch, Paschalis-Schlömer) and indigenous (Treppa) authors were published. 3 For some further information in English about the Image of Manoppello, I recommend checking those links: • Official site of the Holy Face Sanctuary • Sudarium Christi Website • Holy Face of Manoppello Blog • Volto Santo di Manoppello, the Holy Face by Juliusz Maszloch • Several articles from 2010 ENEA Frascati Conference • John Iannone, The Veil of Veronica: Fact or Fiction? For more sceptical view, see Roberto Falcinelli’s The Veil of Manoppello: Work of Art or Authentic Relic? from the 3rd International Dallas Conference on the Shroud of Turin (2005). 4 It has been claimed that the face on the Manoppello Image correspond with the face on the Shroud.
