Shroud of Turin
may be a creation of Leonardo da Vinci

This
project examines the authenticity of The Shroud of Turin, and the
possibility that Leonardo created it, in light of the recreation of the
Shroud
by Stephen Beckman who used a camera obscura with renaissance
technology and materials.
Take the quiz to be rewarded with a Da Vinci Divination which is really
fun.
