I’m skeptical. “Reproduced” is a pretty subjective term. To what degree was it reproduced and to wwhat level of foresnic investigation are the original and the reproduction identical?

Logically, all this proves is how it might have been done if it were a medieval artifact. It can't prove that this was exactly the process. This is a demonstration, not proof.

The headline is not supported by the article.

“similar” does not prove anything definitively

Not replicated. The STURP team ruled out pigments on the shroud. This guy’s process used pigments which were left on his fake.

Funded by an atheist organization. Follow the money.

Nice try.

Reproduced what.... ? ?

They didn't even have a CONCEPT of a NEGATIVE IMAGE in the middle ages. Atheists are funny... I wonder how many are atheists on their death bed.

This is a reproduced thread, there is already an ongoing discussion here with 241 replies.

However, just because this thread was reproduced by another source, that doesn't make it a fake ; )

Luigi Garlaschelli, a medieval fake scientist, funded for his fake work by an Italian association of atheists and agnostics, says in effect, "God is Dead".

Luigi, prepare to meet Nietzsche.

While it is possible to produce a similar image with materials available in the Medieval period, forgers at that time had no reason to make such an elaborate fake. In those times even a simple painted image would have sufficed, so why go to the time and trouble to produce an image that defied explanation even with 20th century techniques? Working backward to produce an image from an existing artifact would be quite different than a Medieval forger developing a technique from scratch to make such an image.

Did he reproduce coins like the ones on the eyes of the figure on The Shroud, which ARE NOT visible to the naked eye? If he did this process he doped out is pretty damn sharp.

Latest round in the Shroud of Turin battle.

If the C-14 dating is correct (HA!) then it could have been created by 14th Century methods for some unknown reason.

The sponsor of this is a group of atheists and agnostics, so they have no axes to grind. /sarc>

There is another thread posted here

Well you see we bolted an X-ray machine to a Lexmark printer and let it run for a few hours. Oddly enough, we ran out of X-rays half way through the project.
