The fabric is not painted though. The impression is something else. There is no layer of paint.

That's what I said. It's printed, maybe I should have said ink instead of paint. Here's an article that talks about how they did it. https://archaeologymag.com/2025/08/shroud-of-turin-image-came-from-sculpture/

Thanks. That link from Archaeometry gives an idea of the object it shows, but nothing on what the image is. The image on the fibres is not ink or paint. No one has been able to replicated it. Thats the mystery of it.

There are many other studies about how the image was achieved, including re-constructions of the shroud or parts of the shroud to demonstrate the techniques.

I am pretty sure no one replicated it.
