Nicholas Allen

Nicholas Allen, a professor of art in South Africa, did exactly that except that he used a statue instead of a real body. It worked. When his cloth was photographed, the resulting image on the negative was a positive. He had shown that someone, sometime in history, could have created an image like that on the shroud. Or had he?

It turns out, as we will amply demonstrate, that the image on the shroud is not a photographic negative. It is not and cannot be an image made with reflected light, not the light from a human corpse, not the light reflected from a statue hanging in the sun.
