Mainly Yeshua! Tomb Engraving Chi-Rho with Laurel Wreath from the Catacomb of St Callixtus in Rome from 200's AD. From Judaism, Christianity inherited a dislike of images of God, and believing Yeshua was God, they were initially reluctant to make pictures of him, however the argument that he was also Human and so could be pictured eventually won. Scratched in stone as an illustration on a tomb, one of the earliest Christian symbols, here linked with the Roman symbol of Triumph - the laurel wreath that was awarded to victorious generals.Marble statue of "Christ the Good Shepherd" 200's AD.

The Crucifixion of Christ. Located in Museo dell'Opera del Duomo, Siena.Marble Statue by Michelangelo 1499. St Peter's Basilica, Vatican, Rome. The dead Christ, taken down from the cross and lying in the arms of his mother. Considered to be one of the most beautiful statues of all time.The Shroud of Turin. Could this be the the Mandylion otherwise known as the Edessa Cloth? King Abgar of Edessa wrote a letter to Yeshua asking him to come cure him of an illness. Christ replies by letter, saying that when he had completed his earthly mission and ascended, he would send a disciple to heal Abgar (and does so). It is beleived that shortly after the Crucifixion, an otherwise-unknown disciple named Thaddeus had carried Christ’s image-bearing burial shroud to Edessa. Legend of the Mandylion recounts that because the successors of Abgar reverted to paganism, the bishop placed the miraculous image inside a wall and sealed it up behind a tile. The image-bearing cloth was discovered in the early 500's AD concealed above one of the city gates. In 593 AD Evagrius Scholasticus recorded the recovery of Edessa from the Persians. He attributed the event to a miraculous "God-made image," a miraculous imprint of the face of Yeshua upon a cloth. A 10th century codex, Codex Vossianus Latinus Q 69 found in the Vatican Library contains an 8th-century account saying that an imprint of Christ's whole body was left on a canvas kept in a church in Edessa: it quotes a man called Smera in Constantinople:... "King Abgar received a cloth on which one can see not only a face but the whole body". Emperor Romanus sent an army, in 944, to remove the Edessa Cloth and transfer it to Constantinople. There are many references to it after 944. In 1080, Alexis Comnenus of Constantinople sought assistance from Emperor Henry IV and Robert of Flanders to protect some of the city’s relics including "the cloth found in the sepulcher after the resurrection". In 1204, the French and Venetian crusaders looted the treasures of Constantinople and carried away many relics. The Edessa Cloth disappeared along with other priceless treasures. Nicholas d’Orrante, Abbott of Casole and the Papal Legate in Athens, wrote, in 1207, about relics taken from Constantinople by French knights. Referring specifically to burial cloths, he mentions seeing them "with our own eyes". It is beleived the Edessa Cloth was held and secretly worshipped by the Knights Templars between 1204 and 1314, passing into the possession of a knight with the same name as the earlier Templar master of Normandy (Geoffrey de Charny). The "Shroud of Turin" was first recorded here in Lirey, France in the 1350's. That nobleman was the first to display the Shroud of Turin in his private chapel in Lirey, right after the Bubonic plague known as the "Great Mortality" know known as the "Black Death plague" that killed one half of all of frances population and one third of all of europes entire population in 5 years.October 1347, commercial ships sailed into Sicilian and Messianian ports, bringing goods from the far east, and something else. The ships were ridden with a mysterious disease, The Black Plague, which in a few short years decimated one third the European population. The fact went unnoticed at the time that on the ships "the sea going" rats were also afflicted with a sickness. People were unable to "flea" from "The Black Death." In the Early stages of the plague, the fleas bit the contaminated rats and then fleas passed it on the human bite victims. In later stages the sickness was passed from person to person. The victims of the Bubonic plague had little chance of survival and very few came back from it. The afflicted had symptoms that were very distinctive. The main symptoms was a swelling of the lymph glands of the groin or armpits, filling with pus and turned black, accounting for the name "The Black Death." A high fever accompanied the swelling along with coughing up blood and a pink rash. A common belief was that the sickness was cause by "corrupt vapors," this gave birth to the rhyme: Ring around the rosies, A pocket full of posies, Achoo! Achoo! We all fall down. The first line refers to the pink rash. The second, posies were carried to perfume the corrupt vapors. Sneezing was brought on by the high feverish chills, and lastly death came to all. It was a widely held belief that The plague was a punishment from God for wrongs committed by the people of Europe. With the almost total decimation of the peasant labor force sparked violent revolts and castle attacks, hundreds of noblemen were killed before it was put down. In five short years an estimated by 1352: 25 million people were dead as a result of the "Black Death." The same disease is thought to have returned to Europe every generation with varying degrees of intensity and fatality until the 1700s. Notable later outbreaks include the Italian Plague of 1629-1631, the Great Plague of London (1665–66), and the Great Plague of Vienna (1679). The next significant European outbreak of plague, known as the Great Plague of Marseille in 1720-1722. There is no known cure for this disease.This is pictures of the Shroud of Turin lined up with Christ Pantocrator from St. Catherine's Monastery in the Sinai from 550 AD.A positive and negative photograph of the Shroud of Turin face. The body was cleaned by loved ones and there were coins placed on the eyes before being covered. You can still see the blood stains on the positive.All wounds from being crucified are present. Even wounds from the crown of thorns, lashings on the back and the spear wound to the side. An interesting finding by a forensic pathologist is noted over the shoulder blade area on the right and left sides. This consists of an abrasion of the skin surfaces, consistent with a heavy object, like a beam. Resting over the shoulder blades and producing a rubbing effect on the skin surfaces. Pope John Paul II called the Shroud of Turin "the icon of the suffering of the innocent of all times."
