Scientific research on the Shroud can be divided into four periods: to 1977: Scientific testing of the Shroud began in 1898 when an Italian amateur photographer named Secondo Pia took the first photograph of the cloth. He would have expected his photographic plate to show a poor resolution negative image of the face, but instead it contained a good resolution positive image. This meant the image on the Shroud was a good resolution negative image, with light and dark areas reversed
