[Right enlarge: ENEA's Hercules-L XeCl excimer (ultraviolet) laser[EF00] "Italian scientists have conducted a series of advanced experiments which, they claim, show that the marks on the shroud – purportedly left by the imprint of Christ's body – could not possibly have been faked with technology that was available in the medieval period ... `The double image (front and back) of a scourged and crucified man, barely visible on the linen cloth of the Shroud of Turin, has many physical and chemical characteristics that are ... impossible to obtain in a laboratory,' concluded experts from Italy's National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Development [ENEA]. The scientists set out to `identify the physical and chemical processes capable of generating a colour similar to that of the image on the Shroud.' They concluded that the exact shade, texture and depth of the imprints on the cloth could only be produced with the aid of ultraviolet lasers – technology that was clearly not available in medieval times. The scientists used extremely brief pulses of ultraviolet light to replicate the kind of marks found on the burial cloth. They concluded that the iconic image of the bearded man must therefore have been created by `some form of electromagnetic energy (such as a flash of light at short wavelength).' ... Prof. Paolo Di Lazzaro, the head of the team, said: `When one talks about a flash of light being able to colour a piece of linen in the same way as the shroud, discussion inevitably touches on things like miracles and resurrection.' `But as scientists, we were concerned only with verifiable scientific processes.'" (my emphasis)[SN11.]

[Right (Enlarge): I found in [Prof. Nicholas] Allen's book, "The Turin Shroud and the Crystal Lens," where he indirectly admitted that he had used synthetic quartz[AN98, 94, 96-97, 207, 240, etc.]. And:

"Through the kindness of my institution I was made a loan with which I purchased a blank piece of high grade quartz. After many months of waiting, a blank sent from Switzerland, finally arrived in South Africa, where ... it was ground and polished into a bi-convex lens"(my emphasis)[AN98, 100].]

That is fused quartz, made from quartz sand heated to ~2,000°C in a modern furnace, not quartz rock crystal, the latter being what was only available in the Middle Ages to fashion a quartz lens. And because "Glass screened out the vital ultraviolet wavelengths in sunlight that had an effect on silver nitrate [and] the only substance which does allow the transmission of UV light, is optical quality rock-crystal (quartz)[AN98, 86], therefore Allen's `medieval photography' theory fails through lack of experimental support[01Sep16 & 16Jun19]. Allen's theory also fails because, as can be seen in his shroud man photo on the front of his book above, it is strongly directional from the overhead passage of the sun[20Jan24], but the Shroudman's image is non-directional[29Oct16].

The above photo is from a future "Quartz lens 01Sep16".]

[Right (Enlarge): Bust of Christ Pantocrator in the Catacomb of Pontianus, Rome[CPW]. This catacomb was closed in 820 and only opened after 1852[WI98, 159; WI91, 168-169], so a 14th century forger could not have known of it. By my count this 8th century fresco[WM86, 105; SD91, 189, 191; IJ98, 153] has ten Vignon markings, the originals of which are on the Shroud: (1), (2), (5), (6), (7), (8), (9), (13), (14) and (15) (see 12Sep21). Note in particular its Vignon Marking (2): three-sided [topless] `square' between brows." See 22Sep12 that the two vertical sides of this `topless square' is a flaw or change in the weave of the Shoud! See also "710". This is from "Pantocrator: Pontianus 25Jul07" below, except with a more realistic photo substituted.]

[Right (enlarge). Pope John Paul II (r. 1978- 2005) prays before the Shroud at the 1998 exposition. "I am not aware of anyone in ... [the Shroud pro-authenticity] community who thinks the Shroud or its image should be worshipped. On the contrary members of the Shroud pro-authenticity community have stated strongly that neither the Shroud nor its image should be worshipped"[12Apr08]:

"We firmly believe that the Shroud should not be esteemed as an object of faith. ... It dishonors God to ... worship the Shroud ... or to treat it as an object of prayer or faith"[SH90, 20-21]

[Right (enlarge). The computer monitor screen showing that the Shroud image's microdensit-ometer data was random and therefore not directional[AM16, 7]. The white cross in the centre of the screen represents the warp and weft of the weave[AM16, 7]. This absence of directionality in the Shroud image is significant because the microdensitometer would have revealed the presence of brush strokes if the image had been painted[AM00, 38].

A champlevé enamel panel which forms part of the altar in the Klosterneuburg monastery, near Vienna, was completed no later than 1181 by Nicholas of Verdun (1130–1205)[WI08; WI10, 182]. As can be seen below, Jesus is depicted on it having been wrapped in a longer

Yet this was at least 79 years before the earliest 1260 radiocarbon date of the Shroud[DP89, 611], and ~174 years before the Shroud first appeared in undisputed history at Lirey, France, in c. 1355[WI10, 222]!].

"... 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 ...

[Left (enlarge): The medieval idea of a circlet crown of thorns is exemplified by this crown of thorns bought by King Louis IX (r. 1226-70) of France from Emperor Baldwin II (1217–73) of Constantinople in 1238, and preserved from 1801 in Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris, until 2019 when it was rescued from a fire in that cathedral, it was moved to the Louvre Museum, Paris[CTW]. The circlet is made of plaited rushes[BP53, 94]. See 08Sep13 that the bloodflows on the back of the head of the man on the Shroud were halted by a circular band, so it is possible that this actually was part of Jesus' crown of thorns[Mt 27:29; Mk 15:17; Jn 19:2,5]. While it is now only a circlet of rushes, it originally had many thorns which were distributed as relics[CJ84, 34]. This photo is from a future "Crown of thorns 08Sep13"]

[Right (Enlarge): "Descent from the Cross with the Holy Shroud," by Giovanni Battista della Rovere (1561-1627), in Galleria Sabauda, Turin. This aquatint print depicts the Descent from the Cross or Deposition of Christ, from the information on the Shroud how Jesus' body was laid on the bottom half of the Cloth and then the top half was drawn over His head and overlapped at His feet. Except that the above front and back, head to head, image on the Shroud held by angels, has the anachronistic burn marks from a fire in 1532 (see "1532"). Also Rovere wrongly depicted Jesus' right hand over His left, when on the Shroud Jesus' left hand is over his right wrist[WI98, 137]. (see Shroud Scope - the spear in the side bloodstain is in the man's right side[WI79, 42-44; IJ98, 2, 62; AM00, 31, 33, 101; GV01, 40, 88]). This photo is from Book, my 06Aug07" below).]
