From "Discovering Da Vinci's Daughter"
The Shroud of Turin:

They say that this piece of cloth is “the
single most studied artifact in human history.” Although there were reports of this shroud before Da Vinci’s time there
are those that believe Da Vinci might have created this. This would have
meant that the first version was replaced by one that Da Vinci created
during his life. Interestingly Da Vinci knew and was friends with the
royal family of Turin so it’s not like it’s a far fetched reach to assert this. I know from my
research of Leonardo that he was fully capable of creating this shroud
and did. Even more interesting is the technique that would have had to
been developed for the shroud image. Most people who think it’s actually
an image of Jesus burned into his burial cloth that managed to stay
intact for 2000 years believe this because it is SO complex - there
isn’t another explanation. It would be like finding a photograph of a
pharaoh in an Egyptian tomb. There would be 3 different possibilities:
1. It’s not from the time you think it is (someone is fooling you or left
it there recently )
2. They had photography back then that we just didn’t know about
3. It was created from an Egyptian God.
After studying Da Vinci’s sketches, paintings, and
journals for the past year I’m pretty good at noticing his style and
technique. When I see the shroud of Turin that is what I see. I’m not
saying there wasn’t a shroud that covered Jesus at some point. I’m
saying this is not it. Those who think it is, -want to believe that it
is but that doesn’t make it authentic. The cloth itself could have been
from the time of Jesus and this would account for the “dates” of it, but
that doesn’t mean the image wasn’t added at a later
date by Da Vinci. Carbon dating is pretty shady anyways, it’s always
being updated and refined.
It’s been shown and tested that the same effect could be duplicated with
the materials of that day. It’s a basic form of photography which
coincidentally I’m attributing to Da Vinci in this book through the Mona
Lisa. I think by showing that Da Vinci was very capable of creating the
Shroud of Turn and knew the TURIN royal family makes an excellent case
that he created it. Not only that but his own face is very similar to
that of “Jesus” in the shroud. This wouldn’t necessarily be because he
wanted to make them similar but would have used himself as the model for
the very complex process. He would have had to look into a mirror to
create this image and this would be why there are facial similarities.
Or he used himself in the “photograph” which is what the Shroud really
is.
Also, although the image in the shroud appears to be a real man it’s
really just a complex drawing. It’s similar to how the Mona Lisa looks
so real, but is just a painting.
I think it’s obvious this is just a clever hoax whose only merit is it’s
complexities but those alone don’t mean they were supernatural. Here are
some additional things to consider:
- When Mary took the cloth from the tomb, wouldn’t she have noticed it
then? Wouldn’t it be mentioned in the bible? An image of Christ
himself?
- Would Jesus’ face really be facing perfectly forward and with an
expression you’d expect?
- No one knows what Jesus looked like - we think we do because of the
representations of him but they are just the artists’ imagination.
Why would this face in a shroud look like all the other paintings
and drawings of him? If it were really his face burned into a cloth
it wouldn’t look like what we’d want and expect. Or what you’re
about to see.
What would be the process that this would happen? Although most people
love to simply say “it’s a miracle” and have that answer everything -
what about Jesus rising from the dead would create this? Think about it.
If you believe in the story from the bible the
tomb’s entrance was opened so he didn’t phase out of it and into the air - ascending to heaven. No - angels supposedly moved
the door open for him to walk out. If that’s the case then at what point
did his image become transposed onto his burial cloth? When he was
re-awakened? Randomly when he was just laying there?
Also the crucifixion wounds are too pronounced - by
the time Jesus bled to death on the cross he would have lost most of his
blood - especially after someone pierced his side with a sword and being
beaten for hours before his death. He also would have been cleaned and
dressed before being placed in a tomb and wouldn’t have bled much, if at
all from his crucifixion wounds. You don’t bleed after you die,
especially if you died from blood loss… right? It’s also shown that the
materials on the shroud are not blood but pigments resembling blood.
It’s also note worthy that those who own the shroud won’t allow further
testing to be done - what does that usually mean? They don’t want people
to know the truth!
Whoever made this cloth intentionally added and pronounced these wounds
to make it look like it was Jesus - Without them there would be no
indication what so ever that it was him or special. It’s like finding
big foot tracks like this;
I’m not trying to insinuate anything about he validity of Jesus.
Discrediting a piece of cloth has nothing to do with Christianity. The
cloth isn’t a holy relic but a very clever and successful experiment
with optics and art that Da Vinci made.
The one of the left is the original; the one on the right is mirrored on top of itself. As I was doing this I confirmed for myself that Da Vinci did this. I’ve been mirroring and working with Da Vinci’s work for months now and this had all the same properties as the Mona Lisa and his sketches. There are even similar patterns that are created in the mirroring that I’ve seen in his other art.
Also notice how the shroud looks even more clear
and defined after it’s mirrored on itself. Just like I’ve seen after
mirroring other Da Vinci art! Also
notice the crosses and symbols that are created after the image is
mirrored on itself. So Jesus presence
also created an image that creates other images when mirrored on
itself??? I think not.
This is Da Vinci’s self portrait mirrored on itself and moved to give
you an idea of what it would look like facing head on. The fact that the
sketch is able to do this is pretty interesting. You’ll notice the
similarities between his face and the face of “Jesus’ in the shroud.
Again I’ll reiterate that he wasn’t trying to make it seem that he WAS
Jesus, it’s just the he had to use his own face as a model and then
alter it to what you world “imagine” Jesus to look like. I don’t even
think the face looks like a real person at all anyways. People just see
what they want.
When I was trying to find a painting of Jesus that
Da Vinci helped make, I came across an article where they were getting
at the same thing. Someone actually wrote a book about The Turin being
created by Da Vinci so at least I know I’m on the right track. He
compared the Salvator Mundi (which was the painting I was googling) and noticed how
similar they were. I’m going to take that a couple steps forward tho.
Check these out.
Those are the image from the Shroud of Turin superimposed over the
painting: Salvator Mundi which Da Vinci either painted personally or
designed. Coincidence? It gets even better.
Ok so lets consider this for a second.. Da Vinci knew and was friends
with the TURIN royal family. (The Shroud of TURIN remember) and it just
so happens that Jesus’s spiritual impression on his shroud matches up
with Da Vinci’s Vitruvian man? OR does this just prove that Da Vinci
made it? Like I said, watch out for these coincidences; I’m almost
starting to believe that nothing is a coincidence at least when it comes
to anything Da Vinci is associated with!



You’ll see how incredibly similar they are in the
non-inverted version. They are the same color and tone. It’s as if they
were created.. By the same artist! The face matches up, the proportions
are identical, and it actually appears to me that they were intended to
do this. There’s definitely something going on there
and by the end of this book you’ll know that Da Vinci was definitely one
for combining images! So it’s very likely that the shroud of Turin was
created by Da Vinci and he probably had it match up with the Vitruvian
man and his other art so people could eventually credit it to him! I bet
he never would have thought people would take it so seriously for so
long.. if at all
Another thing I noticed was the exact same type of art that’s created
when I mirror the image on top of itself and move it around. When I’ve
done it with Da Vinci’s art there is a distinctive pattern that could at
first look to be nothing but are actually small and complex images.
You’ll notice these throughout the Images I’ve made by mirroring them on
top of themselves. At first I thought these were just a side affect
created randomly but after looking at them I’ve noticed similarities
between the various paintings I’ve seen them in. They are like really
abstract cartoons. I’ll get into that later but suffice to say those
same types of things are present in the shroud of Turin!
So in conclusion, I agree with those that believe Da Vinci was
responsible for creating the Shroud of Turin. I think I’ve provided some
additional insight and again - things that could be coincidences that on
deep reflection are definitely more.
In this one you can see what looks like a
view from above. Da Vinci drew things from 3 perspectives – in front,
behind, and from above (and sometimes below) When the composite images
are altered in a certain way, it unlocks these alternate perspectives.
I’m still working on the mechanics behind it, but once I figure it out
I’m confident you can see completely around and through the “Vitruvian
Man” an anagram of this is:
“Turin I am, navv”
