Stations of the Cross by Eric Gill at St Alban's Church

Sixth Station

Station 6: Veronica comforts Jesus by offering him a cloth to wipe himself. The later St Veronica does not appear in the Gospels, and this episode is first found in a medieval source, the Meditationes Vitae Christi by Giovanni de’ Cauli of San Gimignano; a relic at St Peter’s in Rome is claimed to be Veronica’s cloth.
