Review (criteria)	Oppose This does not illustrate the main feature of the Veronica which is to drape the cloak over the bull's head. Charlesjsharp (talk) 15:05, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply] Info When performing Verónica, the torero shows the cloak to the bull, forces it to rush forward and leads it around himself, in no case to drape the cloak over the bull's head, because Veil of Veronica must be untouchable. -- Ввласенко (talk) 22:20, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply] Britannica says that St. Veronica, who, according to Christian legend, wiped Christ’s brow with a cloth as he passed by on his way to Golgotha. Irrespective of whether the cape touches, this image shows nothing relevant to the Veronica pass. Charlesjsharp (talk) 13:05, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply] Info La Verónica - the name of this technique was given by the image of Veronica holding in her hands the shroud on which the face of Christ was reflected. In my opinion, a comparison of traditional images of St. Veronica with the image I proposed demonstrates this clearly.
