The Holy Face image on the Shroud of Turin is similar to that seen on the Veil of Veronica which is preserved at the Vatican. The eyes are closed and the pose of the face is similar. There has never been any Papal decree declaring that the Veil of Veronica is not a true image of Jesus, or that the Shroud of Turin is to be supplanted as the only accepted image in any way. To do so would require the Pope to void out the 6th Station of the Cross. The Shroud of Turin is believed to be the burial cloth of Jesus by Catholics, and the Veil of Veronica is also believed to bear the true image of Christ's face on his way to the crucifixion. Neither is there a preference for a pre or post crucifixion image. The Shroud is not more valid an image than the Veil.Malke2010 15:29, 11 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

There is no source cited for Pius XII approving the Holy Face devotion or making Shrove Tuesday the Feast Day of the Holy Face -- it's not on the Roman Calendar now. AlexRettie (talk) 07:18, 18 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
