Description<\/h2> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n

The two Apostles present one of the most important relics held in St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome: the cloth that, according to legend, Veronica handed to Christ on his way to Calvary and on which his face left an imprint. What the artist shows here, however, is not an imprint. In its physicality and with its rich detail, untouched by the drapery of the textile, Christ\u2019s suffering face could hardly be more real. In this way, Schaffner’s panel is an impressive testimony to the late medieval veneration of the so-called vera icon, the \u201ctrue image\u201d of Christ.<\/p>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n
