page 65 note* The “Volto Santo” (which the author seems, through a defect of memory, to have confounded with the Veronica,) is really a wooden crucifix, said to have been carved by St. Nicodemus. “In the Dome, the Volto Santo, which (pardon the tradition) was set miraculously on an image of Our Saviour, carved by Nicodemus, His disciple, while the artist was surmising after what form to express that sacred face.” (Raymond, p. 265.) See Murray's Handbook of Central Italy, p. 19, ed. 1861.
