Standing Religious Figure Marble St Veronica Sculpture

St. Veronica was a Jerusalem woman living in the first century AD

According to the Christian holy tradition outside the Bible, St. Veronica, also known as Berenica, was a Jerusalem woman living in the first century AD. In the 17th century, the Acta Santorum published by Bollandists was a famous saint in many devout Christian countries, and listed her festival below July 12. But Joseph Braun, a Jesuit scholar in Germany, quoted her anniversary in Festi Marianni on January 13. Saint Veronica and the Virgin, Gregoire Guerard, c.1530 According to the tradition of the church, Veronica was very sympathetic when she saw Jesus carrying the cross to the skull, and gave her veil to him so that he could wipe his forehead. Jesus accepted the offer, and when he returned the veil, his face miraculously appeared on it. The resulting relic is called Veronica Veil. Many Anglican, Catholic and Orthodox churches celebrate Veronica’s story at the sixth stop of the cross. This St Veronica sculpture plays a very good supporting role and can be well placed in the church.

Veronica’s story and her veil are not mentioned in the classic Gospels

Veronica’s story and her veil are not mentioned in the classic Gospels. The closest thing was the miracle of the unknown woman, who was healed by touching the hem of Jesus’ clothes. Nicodemus’s apocryphal gospels named her Berenik ē Or Beronike. Veronica is a Latin version of the ancient Macedonian name. This story was later elaborated in the 11th century. He added that Christ had given her a portrait of himself painted on cloth, which she later used to heal Emperor Tiberius. Only around 1380, in the internationally popular Meditation on the Life of Christ, did this relate to carrying the cross in suffering. So, the St Veronica sculpture is popular with many people. Mary of St. Peter, a Carmelo nun living in Tours, France, mentioned Veronica in her report on the vision of Jesus and began to dedicate to the holy face of Jesus. In 1844, Sister Mary reported that in a vision, she saw Veronica wiping the saliva and mud from Jesus’ face with a veil on the way to the skull. She said that today’s blasphemy and blasphemy are increasing the saliva and mud Veronica wiped off that day. According to Mary of St. Peter, in her vision. Jesus told her that he wanted to sacrifice himself to his holy face to make up for blasphemy and blasphemy. Therefore, the act of compensation to Jesus Christ is compared to Veronica wiping Jesus’ face… If you are interested in this St Veronica sculpture, welcome to contact Aongking.
