Claude Mellan's Face of Christ, also known as The Sudarium of Saint Veronica (1649), is one of the most technically extraordinary works in art history... The entire portrait is rendered using a single, continuous spiralling line that begins at the tip of Christ's nose and expands outward to the edges of the cloth. Mellan achieved the illusion of depth, shadow, and facial features without any cross-hatching or traditional shading. Instead, he precisely varied the thickness and pressure of the burin (his engraving tool) as he rotated the copper plate, creating "swelling" lines that darken the image where needed. The spiralling line is estimated to be approximately 150m (about 500ft) long if it were stretched out.

This The Exorcist (1973) trailer was banned from theatres. The original The Exorcist trailer was infamous for its fast flashing imagery, disturbing sound design, demonic and subliminal imagery that audiences of the 1970s found genuinely disturbing. The trailer was pulled from circulation and has become one of the most controversial horror trailers of all time, after many theaters reportedly refused to show it, due to the fear, panic and discomfort reported by the viewers before screenings. #filmtwt
