EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite woodcut of "St. Veronica" from Liber Chronicarum by Hartmann Schedel, created in 1493. The German School of the 15th century beautifully captures the essence of this iconic saint, making it a treasured piece in any art collection. The image depicts St. Veronica holding a cloth known as the Sudarium, which bears an impression of Jesus' face. This relic is believed to have been used by Veronica to wipe Christ's face during his journey to Calvary, leaving behind an imprint that became known as the Mandylion or Holy Face. Intricately detailed, this woodcut portrays St. Veronica with utmost reverence and devotion. Her gentle expression reflects her deep connection with Jesus and her unwavering faith. The crown of thorns adorning Christ's head serves as a poignant reminder of his sacrifice for humanity. The significance of this artwork lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its spiritual symbolism. It invites viewers to contemplate on the profound love and compassion exemplified by St. Veronica's act of kindness towards Jesus. This remarkable print allows us to appreciate every intricate detail captured by the artist centuries ago, preserving both history and spirituality within its frame. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within a private collection, it serves as a timeless testament to faith and devotion throughout generations.
