- Secondo Pia's camera: it's conserved in the Shroud Museum of Turin.
- In 1898, in opportunity of the marriage of the Prince Vittorio Emanuele, heir to the throne of Italy, a Shroud Ostension happens. ... He ask Baron Manno to obtain a royal permission, because this noble lives near the throne and he can convince the King Umberto to give his assent: the King is the Shroud owner. The authorization is given, but, for reasons of shape, because the initiative does not appear official, the task is not entrusted to a professional photographer, but to a famous lawyer of Turin, Mr Secondo Pia. This person is a friend of Baron Manno and also president of a club of amateur photographers, let alone, personally, an optimal photographer; and, it's not a secondary fact, he is member of the commission for the Exposure of Sacred Art that is kept in Turin in the same period of the Ostension.
- The first photographic click happens on 25 May 1898, but this attempt of Mr Pia fails. ... After the development, this lawyer sees the negative of the image of the Shroud; this negative photo represents, in truth, a figure in positive (about, you may also read synthesis, page 1). Mr Pia begins to shake and nearly the slab falls to him. ...
- In the year 1931, in order to conclude the public celebrations for the wedding of the future "King of May" Umberto II with Princess Mary José of Belgium, a new Ostension of the Shroud is done. This time, a famous professional photographer, Giuseppe Enrie, receives the task to photograph the Shroud. He is helped from the still alive lawyer Mr Pia and from a Salesian, professor Tonelli. Many photos are made, in inner and in exteriors: three of the whole Shroud and nine of details, between which the Face of the Man. ... Various doctors, for the first professor Pierre Barbet, by these photos, begin to take care of the Shroud. ... Various doctors (professor Pierre Barbet is the first of them), by these photos, begin to take care of the Shroud. ... Barbet, observing the numerous hurts on the Shroud Man, asserts without doubt it's the image of a person flagellated and crucifix. ...
- In 1969, during a recognition of the archbishop of Turin cardinal Pellegrino in order to assess the state of the Shroud, it is the time of the color photograph. ...
3. The Shroud of Turin, Page 1
- students.cmccd.cc.ca.us
- The Shroud of Turin is a piece of linen cloth with the images of a man, who had apparently been laid on half of it with the other half draped over him. The faithful believe Jesus was wrapped in such a shroud, like this, when he was taken from the Cross. There has always been debate about the Shroud and there always will be. In the article, Shroud of Turin Goes on Public Display this Weekend, Thaddeus J. Trenn, a professor at the University of Toronto is quoted: "The Shroud of Turin may be viewed as a parable for modern times. ...
- The debate about the Shroud of Turin is nothing new. ... However, interest in the Shroud certainly was renewed in 1898 when photographs were taken by Secondo Pia. The first photographs of the Shroud showed the images to look like photographic negatives. Pia believed no artist could have created this realistic effect revealed by the photographs. Local authorities, including Baron Manno, came to Pia's house to see the original negatives. In the book, The Shroud of Turin, John Walsh wrote, "Baron Manno was soon satisfied that the photograph had been the result of a process. He and others agreed with Pia that the negative-positive aspect of the discovery proved the relic's authenticity. ...
- Ian Wilson has seen the Shroud in person. In his book, The Shroud of Turin: Burial Cloth of Jesus?, he wrote, "The astonishing aspect of seeing the shroud itself rather than a photograph is discovering how pale and subtle the image appears" (9). From this it would be safe to conclude the images are at least as faint on the Shroud itself. ...
- One of the greatest knights of the crusades, Geoffroy de Charny, is believed to have received the Shroud as spoils of war at the fall of Constantinople in the last crusade. ... Mary of the Blachernes, in which was kept the shroud in which Our Lord was wrapped; on every Friday this was held out so well that it was possible to see the face of Our Lord" (qtd. ...
4. What is the Shroud?
- holyface.all-catholic.net
- WHAT IS THE SHROUD?.
- From the time the Shroud has been known to people to be a relic, people have been looking at an image which at best was not pleasant to the eye. ...
- Prior to the year 1898 whoever looked upon the cloth of the Shroud saw a dim figure of what looked like the figure of a man. ... Secondo Pia photographed it that the Shroud began to-reveal its hidden treasure.
- Pia was given permission to photograph the Shroud as it was publicly exposed for veneration. The Shroud, placed on a large frame, was hanging above the altar of the Cathedral of Turin. ... Pia began to realize that what he had photographed was not a normal object, but he had photographed an object which was a perfect negative.
- Pia was the first one to see the real features of Jesus. His discovery revolutionized the thinking on what had been accepted on traditional belief regarding the man of the Shroud. That first picture catapulted the Shroud into worldwide interest among pious as well as agnostic people.
- What does the Shroud really show? Without getting too technical about the nature of photography, it will suffice to say that what people had been looking at for all these centuries was something of which they had no knowledge whatsoever: they were looking at a negative.
- Pia took the first picture everyone was astonished by the discovery.
- A picture of the Shroud is available here so that the reader may have a visual knowledge of some of the things which will be explained in the next few pages. ...
- It is well to note here that even though the Shroud was well guarded throughout the centuries, the cloth shows many marks of constant handling. The Shroud had been placed in a silver reliquary as it was kept in the chapel at Chambery, where on December 4, 1532 there was a fire. ...
- As one views the Shroud he will notice that along the image there are white patches and blackened spots -- all the result of that fire, which did not ruin any part of the image of the body. The Shroud contains two images, one of the frontal part of a body and the other of the dorsal part of a body. ...

Remarkable exhibits: the wooden casket that contained the Holy Shroud during its transfer from Chambéry to Turin in 1578, the large frame that used to keep it, the equipment used by Secondo Pia to take and develop the first photograph in 1898 and the relating plates, the plates taken by Giuseppe Enrie in 1931, 16th- to 19th-century prints and books and various scientifical instruments. Of special note is the 16th-century silver and semi-precious stone reliquary that kept the Holy Shroud up to the last Ostension in 1998. ...

- The Shroud's history.
- he Shroud arrived in Turin in 1578 from Chambéry, then the capital of the Duchy of Savoy, and it has been kept in Turin Cathedral ever since. ...
- Reliable historical documents record the Shroud's movements, without interruption, from the mid-fourteenth century. It is known that in 1350s the Shroud was in Lirey, France, and perhaps previously it was in the East, initially in Edessa and later in Constantinople, before being brought to Europe during the Crusades. ...
- Umberto II left the Shroud to the Pope in his will, and in 1983 it became the property of the Holy Sec.
- The Holy Shroud has been publicly displayed over the last four centuries, most recently in 1978, to celebrate the four-hundredth anniversary of its arrival in Turin.
- he Shroud began to "surprise" a century ago when it was photographed for the first time by Secondo Pia, in 1898.
- The negative of that photograph revealed in detail, and with even greater clarity than the positive image, all the "wounds" that the Shroud preserved. ...
- How was the image on the Shroud formed?.
- Pollens have been found on the cloth, strongly supporting the view that the Shroud spent time not only in Europe but also in the Near East. ...

7. The photo negative aspect of the Shroud
- perso.wanadoo.fr
- For much of its history, the image on the Shroud appeared faded. Then, on the 28th of May, 1898, the first photo of the Shroud was taken by Secondo Pia. ...
- The subject had been faint and blurred, with no contrast, so Secondo was not optimistic. ...
- Understanding this, and the amazing optical characteristics of the Shroud is not easy. The Shroud behaves in many ways as a photo negative. On a photo of the Shroud, the pinkish stains and scorch marks go very dark, and harder to interpret, yet the human image, the original pale yellowish discolouring, is outlined dramatically, gaining an impressive vigour. ...
- But the fact is that the invention of photography was necessary for the image on the Shroud to become perfectly comprehensible -- and photography did not start until around 1840 ! Some folk might then ask, " How is it possible that in the 1200s or early 1300s, a medieval forger could have considered creating a "negative" image, a totally unknown notion, unimaginable and useless at the time? -- an image that looks mediocre -- and all done so that a few centuries later a technique might be discovered that would make it possible to understand this image at last? Who would ever propose such a hypothesis ?.
- Finally, there is the point that the Shroud behaves like a photographic negative in its representation of the figure, and behaves as a photographic positive with the pinkish stains. ... This is already, almost, a clinching argument in favour of the authenticity of the Shroud. ...
- The careful study of the Shroud, at the beginning of the 20th century, had given Gabriel Quidor an idea : that this "negative" was no ordinary negative, and that there could be a relationship between the intensity in colour of the image, and the distance separating the Shroud from the body. With the means at his disposal at the time, he developed a colour intensity chart, and contour map, that made it possible to sculpt in gelatin a representation, in three dimensions, of the man in the Shroud. After him, Paul Gastineau created a medal portraying the face in the Shroud in low relief. In 1976, further innovation came through the use of computers, when Jumper and Jackson, two NASA engineers, using a computer, successfully obtained data representing in three dimensions, the surface of the body that had left its mark on the Shroud. ...
- Many experiments were conducted with photographs other than a photo of the Shroud, but in none of the other cases did the use of Tridimensionality give an acceptable 3D image. Only the Shroud of Turin behaved in this unique manner.
- The Shroud is an image formed by contact between the body and the cloth, and the representation obtained on the cloth, has the same lateralisation characteristics as if the Shroud was a mirror. When we look at the frontal image on the Shroud, the left side of the body is on the left side of the cloth, (and on our left). When we look at the back view on the Shroud, the left part of the body is on the right of the cloth, (and on our right). ...
8. The Turin Shroud
- www.altguide.com
- the authentication of the Turin Shroud.
- In issue 51 of the Newsletter, dated June 2000, Ian Wilson reviewed my New and Undisclosed Secrets of the Turin Shroud, which was, in truth, a very much abbreviated text of material I have gathered since 1992. ...
- It may well form the basis for a much more comprehensive study, but in 1997 I felt impelled by the hazardous fire in Turin, to publish this modest document, lest the information I had discovered should vanish along with the disappearance from public view of the Shroud itself.
- I am convinced that unless we are prepared to consider the profound importance of the Nazarene connection, we will never precisely identify the man of the Shroud as Jesus himself rather than a man crucified during that era, who nonetheless bore all the biblical marks of crucifixion. ...
- Ian Wilson himself gives a highly resonant account in his 1978 Turin Shroud book of the presence of the Sudarium, as described by St Anthony the Martyr in AD570 at a cave convent on the banks of the Jordan, that river which is sacred to the Mandeans, i. ...
- This is evidenced by the position of the Gundelia Tournefortii (Crown of Thorn) pollens that Avinoam Danim so significantly identified, and which can be found rather on the periphery of the Shroud, whereas if it had remained on the head, would most certainly not have been the case. The myrtle, on the other hand, would account for the particular protrusion of foliage beyond the brow in the Secondo Pia photographs, as the Nazarenes plucked the lower leaves from the twigs so that they could be placed on a head filet surrounding the head.
- Sprigs of myrtle were held by brides under the wedding canopy and conversely placed on the Shroud of the deceased before burial. ...
- Unfortunately Max Frei was not allowed to take pollen samples from the precious brow and back of the head areas I have described, but since the myrtle is indigenous to the Holy Land, it would be highly improbable, given the location of the Shroud, that such pollens would not be found and if they were not, one cannot but wonder why.
- Now, as to the other plant pollens that also exist on the Shroud, a really remarkable further link exists with Mandean-Nazarene burial customs. ...
- Only this particular sect conducted their funeral rites in this manner, which supports with a certain measure of conviction the discovery of Cistaceae pollens, providing a meaning and purpose for their existence on the Turin Shroud. ...
- The next overwhelmingly significant feature of these burial rites was the placing of a face cloth, rather like a handkerchief over the face of the deceased before wrapping the body in a shroud. ... On the Shroud image, it can be identified as the dark rectangle around the face.
- Lastly, something as yet unmentioned reveals the last key as to the very precise identity of the Image on the Shroud, and this is the suspension on a cord of an iron ring attached to the myrtle wreath and hanging down the side of the head (left on the positive Secondo Pia photograph and right on the Shroud). ...
- Once again, I will refer to certain unexplained findings of a metallic nature of particles of Iron on the Shroud described as "exceptionally pure" in a former book by Ian Wilson.
- For the third and by far the most incomprehensible aspect of the Shroud's authentication elements, I must refer to Radionics, as once only in the history of medical innovation were anatomical details and structural images of internal tissues actually derived from blood samples, photographed and registered on slides by a specially designed Radionic camera.

10. The Shroud of Turin
- www.geocities.com
- The Shroud Of Turin.
- The Shroud of Turin is one of the most remarkable, mysterious, and thoroughly studied artifacts in the world today. Believed by many to be the actual burial cloth of Christ, the Shroud made its first recorded appearance in 14th century France. Housed in the Italian city of Turin since 1578, renewed interest was generated in 1898 when the first photographs were made of the relic and it was discovered that the image on the Shroud was a photographic negative! How was such an image made? And how does one explain the incredibly life-like details which are remarkably consistent with Biblical accounts of Christ's crucifixion? Historians, pathologists, linguists, biblical scholars, textile experts, chemists, physicists, photographic specialists, artists, botanists, microbiologists and other scientists from around the world have been trying to answer these important questions for decades.
- The Shroud astonished the public a century ago when it was photographed for the first time by Secondo Pia, in 1898. The negative of that photograph revealed in detail, and with even greater clarity than the positive image, all the "wounds" that the Shroud preserved. How was the image on the Shroud formed? .
- Pollens have been found on the cloth, strongly supporting the view that the Shroud spent time not only in Europe but also in the Near East. ...
- See the Shroud of Turin.
11. THE AUTHENTICITY AND THE SCIENTISTS
- holyface.all-catholic.net
- Throughout the centuries whoever saw the Shroud had to form an opinion on his own or accept someone else's opinion and come to a conclusion regarding its authenticity. ... Bishop Henry of Poitiers' opinion on the Shroud had been accepted because he spoke as a Bishop and as such he must have had a good argument for making the statement. ... And the argument began because of the curiosity of a man with a crude camera, who secured the permission to take a picture of the Holy Shroud.
- It was in 1898 and the Holy Shroud was exposed for public veneration in the Cathedral of Turin, Italy. A photographer, Secondo Pia, who was actually a lawyer by profession, but who took pictures as a hobby, took a photograph of the Shroud. When Secondo Pia looked at the plate, he realized that the image of the corpse of Christ was positive and not negative, as it should have been. Because it was positive the image was much clearer than the one on the Shroud. ... Pia could see all the details. Since that day the Holy Shroud has become not only a greater object of veneration for the faithful who believe that it is the burial cloth of Jesus, but at once it became the object of inquiry for many scientists. ...
- Why such an interest? Those who wanted a confirmation of their beliefs could now find a good argument using the Shroud as an object left to them by Divine Providence to strengthen their faith. Those who were seeking an explanation of a phenomenon that had no equal either in history or in archaeology, found the Shroud most intriguing.
- Pia. ... Those hard-headed scientists were convinced of the authenticity of the Shroud.
- The Shroud continued to be an object of interest to historians, scripture scholars, and scientists, but it was not until the 1950s that a true revival of interest in the cloth began to surface again. With all the new scientific instruments used now to identify the origin and the nature of many artistic and archaeological artifacts, why not submit the Shroud to these new methods and once and for all establish its authenticity.
- Scientists who are now in the majority lean towards the declaration of the authenticity of the Shroud. There is true human blood on the cloth; pollen is extracted from the cloth that seems to place the Shroud exactly in the geographical places that it had been; to the theory that it could be a painting, no pigment or paint are found on the cloth; the figure on the cloth is of three-dimensional nature, not found, up to that time, in any works of art (scientists discovered that the density of the image varies according to the distance between the cloth and the parts of the body underneath it. Because of this relationship they were able to create a three-dimensional image of the man buried in the Shroud); there is even an object over his eye identified as a coin bearing the inscription of the Emperor Tuberous Caesar. ...

- This descover gave an entirely new direction to all scientific studies on the Shroud, including all branches of science and research, which are illustrated in this paper.
- The traces imprinted on the Shroud are of four basic types: fire marks on thefabric, water stains, the chiaroscuro image of a human figure and bloodstains.
- The patches cover the holes made by the fire that broke out in 1532 in the sacresty of the Sainte-Chapelle at Chambéry, where the Shroud was kept at that time. ... In the central part of the Shroud, between the fire marks, appear the impressions of the back and front of a full-size human figure. ...
- The studies and scientific research that have been carried out on the Shroud for a century have led to certain findings which are considered incontrovertible and are explained in details in this paper.
- The Shroud is not a painting and it cannot be the work of human hand, as the image on the Shroud appears as a photographic negative to the unaided eye. ...

18. Image of Jesus Fact or Fiction?
- www.mythsdreamssymbols.com
- Shroud of Turin.
- The infamous shroud of Turin has been the center of speculation for over 600 years. ...
- The shroud itself is 14 feet 3 inches (4. ... On the shroud is a life size image of a man who has the crucifixion wounds of Jesus- including the punctures from the thorn crown, bloody lashings on his back from the Romans and the holes through the wrists and ankles. Many believe the shroud is the same cloth that Jesus was wrapped in after his death and the resurrection process exerted such energy that his image was imprinted on the cloth.
- During the 14th century a knight named Geoffrey de Charny I put the shroud on display in Lirey, France. ... When the temple the shroud was kept in caught fire in 1532, the people were able to bring it to safety with only a few burn marks. Finally in 1578 it was given to the Turin cathedral, where it is housed even to this day.
- Up until the 1890s, scientists didn't really pay attention to the shroud because the image is fairly translucent. Research began to pick up, however, when photographer Secondo Pia took several prints of the shroud and found the negatives strongly show the image of a crucified man. ...
- Various theories, including the idea proposed by Oxford researcher Ian Wilson that the shroud was actually the mandylion, were suggested and later rejected.
- Using carbon-14 dating techniques, the teams found the shroud to have originated between 1260 and 1390. ... Thomas Phillips, from Harvard's High Energy Physics Lab, believes the body in the shroud gave off such powerful energy that it produced bursts of neutrons, disturbing the carbon dating.
- If one is to look at the carbon dating as correct, then the shroud's image is not that of Jesus. This has lead to the belief that Leonardo de Vinci actually created the shroud! Working with various tools and substances available in his time, de Vinci could have created the three-dimensional image using a corpse. After carving the body to include the needed wounds produced by a crucifixion, many believe de Vinci placed the image of his own face on the shroud! Several researchers were able to create a similar shroud using objects readily available to de Vinci.

- This chain of indexical meaning is important to the reception of the shroud and its installation, and the indexicality centers on the idea of photography:.
- Modern fascination with the shroud, and scientific testing, blossomed in 1898, when on May 28 Secondo Pin took the first photographs of the shroud during one of its rare viewings. ... Pia was astounded to see that what had been faint markings on the linen appeared as a dear, fully formed image of a man on the photographic negative. ...
- That a photograph played a part in revealing the "photographic" nature of the shroud is semi-coincidental; nevertheless, a deeper logic of photography underlies the "modern fascination" with the shroud and pervades the debate over its authenticity. The purchasers of the best-seller that called the shroud a literal "snapshot" of the Resurrection are presumably looking for something so important to them that they are willing to accept the contradiction that something can be literal and still need inverted commas around it, and that an image of a dead man can directly, indexically represent the defeat of death. ...
- This conflict between the indexical photographic foundations of the collage machines and the new digital plasticity can be seen clearly in the controversy surrounding the Shroud of Turin.
- In a listing of some of the pros and cons of the shroud controversy, the Times mentions that, on the one hand, the shroud "is a negative image and not a painting. ...
