The Intriguing Shroud of Turin and the Face of Jesus

The Shroud of Turin is believed by many to be a burial cloth of Jesus. It contains an image of a crucified man bearing nail wounds, whip marks and bruises. The estimated height and weight of the man is between 5'11" and 6'1" and 168 to 180 pounds.

The image on this ancient cloth is a photographic negative with 3D relief properties. This means that when someone takes a photograph of the shroud and looks at its negative, the image becomes a photographic positive.

The 3D relief properties contain information of how far away parts of the body were from the burial cloth after the body was wrapped in it. For example, the tip of the nose was closer to the cloth than the eyes were. This relief effect was somehow embedded into the image.

There is nothing like the Shroud of Turin in the world, and no one is able to reproduce it to this day. It is one of the most studied artifacts on earth. Learn more about the Shroud of Turin in the following video by Widerperspective Productions.
