Guadalupe:
A Living Image
When the Virgin Mary
appeared to Juan Diego
she left a miraculous image
of herself on his tilma.
Centuries later, the results
of scientific analysis of the
image on the tilma are amazing.
In the Virgin’s eyes the
13 figures who witnessed the
miracle are visible. The stars
on her cloak are positioned
exactly as they were on the day of the miracle in
1531. The painting technique used is unknown. The
colors are vibrant and intact; the cloth itself uncorrupted
by time.
