I'll go with what has been depicted for thousands of years.
This is one of the first portraits - done for and by people of Jesus’ time

These are some of the thousands of Iconic paintings done down the centuries -
and painting done in the 500’s

the Pentacrator compared to the Shroud

Below - the only pic I can find of the History Channels EAster special last year - using state of the art science, they created a 3-D image of the man in The Shroud. This is not the best photo - nor the finished one. If you watch the video, and see the results, and have a pulse - you will be astounded.

All I've posted just scratches the surface. As a portrait artist, I have researched the ‘face of Jesus’ for decades...and painted my own versions.
It had a beard and kind eyes.
I think that’s Attila the Hun.

Kudzu Jesus? That’s new.
You are forgiven.
Geddit?
CHEMTRAIL Jesus! I knew it!
We are simply poking some fun and kidding around.
I think Jesus would approve.
thanks
You remember Bush choking on that pretzel? The Christian Marxists will tell you that was Jesus.
That’s Hey-Zeus to you.
My skepticism goes far beyond any idea of a likeness of Jesus. It doesn’t matter to me what He looked like. It’s irrelevant and useless to dwell upon. What matters is who He was, and what he taught. Anything else is pure pablum.
I agree maine. I have also studied the Shroud from every angle for years. One thing I think the pictures that are taken from the Shroud gets wrong is the hair. I was astounded to realize that Jesus wore his hair like many of the ultra Orthodox Jews do today. He has the side curls (made messy by the horror he went through) and the braid down His back. You can clearly see the braid on the Shroud. His hair did not hang loose. BTW I love that picture made from the Shroud. Would love to see the video as I think I may have missed that one.
Well, Jesus is everywhere...
I guess your Jesus takes Manuel with him. ;o)
