EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the sacred House of St. Veronica in Jerusalem, located in the Old City of East Jerusalem, Palestine, now Israel. The House of St. Veronica is believed to be the site where the legendary Veronica, a woman from Palestine, is said to have wiped the face of Jesus as he carried his cross on the way to Calvary. According to tradition, the cloth used by Veronica to wipe Jesus' face is now housed within the house, making it a significant pilgrimage site for Christians around the world. The image, taken circa 1890 by the renowned Bonfils Studio, showcases the simple yet profound architecture of the house, with its arched entrance and whitewashed walls. The photograph also reveals the bustling activity of the surrounding streets, as people go about their daily lives, adding a sense of history and vibrancy to the scene. The House of St. Veronica has undergone various transformations throughout history, including damage during the 1920 riots and restoration efforts in the 1960s. Despite these changes, the site remains an essential part of Christian tradition and continues to draw pilgrims from all corners of the globe. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to the late 19th century and inviting us to reflect on the rich history and spiritual significance of this sacred site. The House of St. Veronica stands as a testament to the enduring power of faith and the importance of preserving the stories and places that shape our collective human history.
