New acquisitions antique hunting in France!!
Beautiful antique religious reliquary. This rare piece comes from a French chapel.
Made on silk complete with papal red wax seals attached to velvet from the 19th century is in a gold gilded wood / plaster frame with glass.
The relic of the holy face was made in Rome in the 19th century. The text below the face refers to St. Peter's Church in Rome where the original is located. On the right is largely the original wax stamp.
This is a genuine and very rare holy face of Jesus reliquary. The relic is an exact copy of Veronica's actual veil kept in the Vatican. On the left we see the stamp in blue and in the center a blind pressed mark.
On the backside the official churchpaper, with the same stamp as on the front and a red wax stamp. We can see the date MDCCC XCVII = 1897
Veronica was the holy woman who wiped Jesus' face with her veil on her way to the cavalry.
This is remembered as the sixth crossing in all Roman Catholic and Episcopalian and Anglican churches around the world.
Many Lutheran churches also display Stations of the Cross. The relic of the holy face was an artist engraved on fabric and a red papal wax stamp on the lower left.
Printed in Latin below: "True Representation of the Holy Face of Our Lord Jesus Christ Venerated in Rome in the Most Holy Basilica of St. Peter." The seal is confirmation from the pope that this relic of the Holy Face touched the original Veronica's veil, then touched the wood of the True Cross, and then touched the tip of the spear that pierced Christ's side.
It is in beautiful antique authentic condition. The frame is slightly damaged on the outside, but makes this piece very authentic.
Approximately Dimensions :
Height: 18.8 inches (48 cm)
Width: 15.7 inches (40 cm)
Thick: 1.57 inches (4 cm)
Thank you very much for visiting my shop, love and greetings, Ben.
