Woodcut by Michael Wolgemut, inserted in the text of Buck derChroniken. Nuremberg, 1493. A peculiar version of the Veronica legends is found in anAnglo-Saxon manuscript of the eleventh century, preserved in theUniversity Library of Cambridge, the title of which runs NothanisJudaei Legatio, i. e., The Message of the Jew Nathan. Karl Pearson in his F;-o;uVa., Plate VI. The drawing differs in some unim-portant details from the painting. The face expresses more firmness of faiththan grief or sorrow and is certainly the work of a great artist, but in allessential points it remains a faithful copy of the original. In both the suda-rium is translucent and tlie figure and posture are identical. 654 THE OPEN COU
