Sindone - The hands

As I said yesterday I turned, cropped and inverted the image (the blue color it's just to put in evidence the body image impressed on the flax shroud ). Of course I suggest to enlarge the image. On the right wrist it's clear the blood stain due the nail. Black stains are where the shroud had opened by the fire in Chambery in 1532. --- Saturday the face.

Come dicevo ieri ho girato, ritagliato e reso negativa l'immagine (il colore blu è per meglio mettere in evidenza l'immagine del corpo sul lenzuolo di lino). Naturalmente suggerisco di ingrandire l'immagine. Sul polso destro è ben visibile la macchia di sangue causata dal chiodo. Le macchie nere sono i buchi causati dall'incendio in Chambery del 1532. --- Sabato il volto.

  1. The blood-stained hands--very touching.
    What a miracle the shroud was not destroyed by the fire.
