Albrecht Dürer's "Sudarium Held by Two Angels" (1513) is a powerful engraving that depicts two angels holding the cloth of Veronica, which is said to bear the image of Christ's face. The scene is rendered in exquisite detail, with Dürer's masterful use of line and shading creating a sense of both realism and drama. The angels' wings and the folds of their garments are intricately depicted, conveying a sense of weight and movement. The powerful image of Christ's face, partially obscured by the cloth, adds a layer of solemnity and reverence to the piece.
