Holy Face of Jesus from Shroud of Turin (1909)
The Shroud of Turin is a length of linen cloth that is believed by some to be the burial shroud of Jesus Christ. It is kept in the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist in Turin, Italy. The shroud is approximately 14 feet long and 3.5 feet wide and bears the image of a man who appears to have been crucified.

The authenticity of the shroud has been the subject of much debate and controversy. While some people believe that the shroud is the actual burial cloth of Jesus, others believe that it is a medieval forgery. The shroud has been carbon-dated to the Middle Ages, which supports the theory that it is a medieval creation.

In addition to the carbon-dating results, there are other factors that have led some scholars to doubt the authenticity of the shroud. For example, the bloodstains on the shroud do not match the wounds described in the Gospels.

Despite these questions surrounding its authenticity, the shroud continues to be an object of fascination and veneration for many people around the world.
