I wonder why the medieval forger wanted to obscure the second facial image using the fabric's weave until the image could be discovered centuries later using digital image-filtering software?
Earlier this year, chemist Raymond Rogers, a Los Alamos National Laboratory chemist, showed that the sample used for carbon-14 dating was indeed from discrete reweaving of the cloth. By examining remaining material from the carbon-14 sample, he proved that what was tested was chemically unlike the rest of the shroud. Rogers found splices and dyestuff used to make the reweaving discrete.Wow! It's not hard to see the hand of God in this.

"Now with modern image analysis we can clearly see that the pictures of Jesus in numerous works of art are most probably sourced from a single image; the Shroud of Turin."

Thanks for posting this.
Thank you for this post.
Twenty-first century technology is now uncovering secrets of the ancient shroud. The technology is amazing. The shroud is even more amazing.
LOL. Obvious Question: Where's all the blood and plasma. Where are the body fluids? Where are the eyelashes, brow, chest, arm and leg hairs. For all the evidence of an image, there is evidently a vast lack of evidence that the cloth was ever exposed to a body, much less that of Christ. Yet one can find pollen on the linen from Jerusalem as if to say all those years ago, the pollens clung to the cloth, but, blood could not.. This is a fraud - utterly, clearly and completely. How it was made is immaterial.
the Shroud of Turin"By 2012 scientists will not have developed an explanation for how images on the Shroud of Turin came to be on the cloth -an explanation that satisfies all of the physical and chemical properties of the images and does not violate basic laws of physics."

The great philosopher of empirical skepticism, David Hume, some two hundred and fifty years ago, challenged very effectively (but never disproved) the possibilities of miracles when he wrote, “No testimony is sufficient to establish a miracle, unless the testimony be of such a kind, that its falsehood would be more miraculous than the fact, which it endeavors to establish.” It could be that Hume’s skepticism is now being put to the test. The criteria, for now, suggest that it is a miracle by Hume's own standard. But that is so only because an explanation so far eludes scientists. I contend that an explanation will continue to elude scientists.
