Pia was amazed by the clear image the negative plate revealed in his darkroom demonstrating that the image on the shroud was in fact formed in the negative. Stains found on the cloth were reported to have contained whole blood and conform to the sort of wounds consistent with crucifixion. That this occurred after the death of the victim is demonstrated by the separate components of red blood cells and serum draining from the lesion. There is a deep puncture in the wrist of the uppermost hand. The second wrist is covered. In tests by a team of American scientists known as STURP found no reliable evidence of forgery but were unable to explain the how the image might have been formed.

For the disciples of Christ who approached the tomb of Jesus Christ on the third day and discovered that the stone was rolled away, the rolled-up grave clothes would not only have been repulsive, they would have been irrelevant. As Jews who had been brought up under the Hebraic law none would have touched a bloodied cloth pertaining to the dead. As believers in Christ, they were concerned for their Lord alone.
