This 19th century folk retablo from Mexico represents 'El Divino Rostro', also known as 'The Veil of Veronica'. According to popular belief, Veronica, a woman who made her way through the crowds when she saw Christ on the way to Calvary, wiped the sweat and the blood from his forehead. His image is said to have imprinted itself on her cloth and is still preserved in Saint Peter's today. Arguably, the title of this theme is also derived from "Vera Icon" or "True Icon."
Dimensions: 12 inches vertical x 8 inches horizontal.
