Off the 3 most important relics/icons of Christ namely The Shroud of Turin (Blood) the Viel of Veronica (Sweat) , The Mandylion (Emotion) it was the Mandylion that came as a direct Gift from Christ to man Thus its truth ;
Yes, the story of St. Veronica is amazing, but, unfortunately, it is not a true one. The Image of Edessa was taken to Constantinople in 944 A.D. where it became known as the Mandylion. Byzantine iconographers used the facial image of Jesus on the Mandylion as a model for icons, and these icons were allowed to be named as "vera iconica" because they had been based on the original scene. Some of these Mandylion icons were exported to the West along with the title of vera iconica. The Byzantines also invented a new legend to account for the image of Jesus' face that was seen on the Mandylion. That legend stated that a woman had offered to towel to Jesus as he carried his cross, and that his facial image became impressed on that cloth. The western populace took the words "vera iconica" to be that woman's name and conflated them to "Veronica." However, "Veronica" is not Jewish name, and the tale of the woman who offered a towel is not in the Gospels. Images of people were illegal in ancient Israel, and if such an image had appeared, it would have been confiscated by the authorities. We now know the the Image of Edessa was actually the Shroud of Turin folded several times so that only its facial aspect was visible. The Sixth Station of the Cross has a very important element of truth behind it which points directly at the Holy Shroud.
Blessed 🙏
