    Description

    Holy Face of Jesus picture is a photographic
    replica
    of an actual Holy Face effigy. Beautiful 8x12 print on canvas. Open back. Perfect to hang on wall or stand on easel (easel not included)
    In the words of Our Lord to Blessed Pierina:
    “Every time My Face is contemplated I will pour out My Love into the hearts of those persons, and by means of My Holy Face the salvation of many souls will be obtained.”
    During the period between Christmas and the Feast of the Epiphany, Pope Pius IX was in exile from Rome. The church was experiencing a revolution and many evils. During this time he asked for special prayers and on the last 3 days, had Veronica’s Veil on public display. Now the veil isn’t very visible and is covered with a silk cloth. On the last day, Jan 6, 1849 a miracle occurred. The veil started to glow.  For a period of three hours from 12 noon to 3pm, Our Lord’s Face was life-like and could clearly be seen. The image was weeping and bleeding.
    The Cannons of the basilica ordered the bells rung. Many people came to see the miracle.  The miracle itself is documented by an apostolic notary in the daybook of the Vatican Basilica. There was no photography at the time so the miracle was drawn. It wasn’t until 1898 when Secondo Pia took the first photo of the Holy Shroud of Turin.  No one knew at that time the image that lay hidden in the Shroud. So there was only the drawing of the miracle of Veronica’s Veil.
    Copies of the Veronica Veil miracle were made over a period of about 75 years. These effigies of the Holy Face were printed and touched to the relic of Veronica’s veil, to a portion of the true cross, and Longinus’ spear.
    100 days extra indulgence for every prayer said before a picture of the Holy Face granted by Pope Pius IX, December 11, 1876.
