Product Details
  • The Veil of Veronica or Holy Face of Jesus Retablo #175
  • The Veil of Veronica, or Sudarium (Latin for sweat-cloth), also known as the Vernicle and often called simply the Veronica, is a Christian Relic consisting of a piece of cloth said to bear an image of the Holy Face of Jesus produced by other than human means (an acheiropoieton, "made without hand"). Various existing images have been claimed to be the original Relic, as well as early copies of it; representations of it are also known as Vernicles.
  • The story of the Image's Origin is related to the Sixth Station of the Cross, wherein Saint Veronica, encountering Jesus along the Via Dolorosa to Calvary, wipes the blood and sweat from His face with her Veil. She approached Him and wiped the blood, from the crown of thorns, off of His face. The Image of His face appeared on the cloth which she used. The unique style of His face is beautifully painted on this Retablo.
  • According to some versions, St. Veronica later traveled to Rome to present the cloth to the Roman Emperor Tiberius. The Veil has been said to quench thirst, cure blindness, and even raise the dead.
  • Retablo dimensions in the Original Nicho are approx. 16.5 inches vertical x 10 inches
  • Origin is Mexico
