St. Veronica is a key figure in the story of Christ’s crucifixion, and she is one of the most widely revered saints in Christian art for her compassion. The St. Veronica statue shows a traditionally dressed woman holding a veil. The veil reveals the face of Jesus, symbolizing her acts of mercy and divine connection to him.
The image of St. Veronica in the sculpture is gentle and dignified in her posture, and her face shows both compassion and devout faith.
Meaning of the St Veronica Statue
The story of St. Veronica originates from the New Testament Gospels in the Bible, but its specific details are not fully described in the Bible. According to tradition, St. Veronica was the one who, when Jesus was on his way to the cross and saw him in extreme pain from the whipping and weight bearing, out of compassion took out her veil and wiped away the sweat and blood of Jesus.
According to this traditional story, St. Veronica is also called the “Woman with the Holy Face,” and her veil shows the Holy Face of Jesus as a result of her contact with Him.
