The almost transparent white veil measures about 6-1/2 x 9-1/2 inches

Are we to assume this is a fragment of the original? That size is hardly a historically-accurate veil! More like a pocket-hankin.

I expect a round of retesting.

I want to learn a little more about this.

Amazing rediscovery. The fact that it is the same face as the Shroud of Turin adds to the credibility of both.

It took some digging but I finally found a much better picture of the Manoppello Veronica's Veil.

Here is their "proof" that the Veil and the Shroud are from "identical" faces:
