[Right (enlarge). Face of Jesus on the Homs vase:

"... a relief portrait of Christ on a silver vase that was found at Homs [ancient Emesa] in Syria, and is now in the Louvre in Paris ... Firmly datable to the sixth century [it has] ... the distinctive likeness that today we instinctively recognize as Jesus Christ. And if we compare [this] ... front-facing likeness ... with the face as visible on the Shroud ... there is a very uncanny resemblance: the same frontality, the same long hair, long nose, beard, etc. It is as if someone has studied the Shroud's facial imprint and for public consumption has very carefully crafted an interpretative official likeness from this ... "[WI10, 135]. See 20Feb24.]
