I saw the Shroud of Turin on display in Atlanta, Ga around 1980.. I remember impression marks where Jesus was wrapped, and didn’t consider it blood, but sweat, etc from hanging on cross. There would have been blood from Crown of Thorns, no doubt. The Shroud of Turin has caused many scientists, who were skeptical to convert to Christianity, when in contact with it. The power of the Shroud is spiritual....

The Shroud has never been out of Italy since the 14th Century. You must have seen a reproduction or large scale photograph.

No doubt I saw the 1978 life size photographs. The new exhibits of photographs started much later, however I did recognize the photographs. After standing in line for such a long time back then, it’s a wonder I remember very much. It was a moving experience spiritually.

The event was crowded like my long lines to view Claude Monet paintings in New Orleans, 1995.
