How do you know?
Uh huh. Sure :)
“The Real Face Of Jesus”
What a joke. They dug up some skulls in the Galilee and did a forensic reconstruction. It’s not as if they found Jesus’ skull, now is it? You could very well be looking at Jesus’ dimwitted cousin Schlomo.
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

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.
