Selon la tradition chrétienne, Véronique est une sainte femme juive qui aurait essuyé le visage et la sueur du Christ alors que Celui-ci s’affaisse sous la croix, lors de Sa montée au Calvaire. Son voile blanc, dont elle se servit aurait gardé l’empreinte de la face de Jésus.. Le « voile de Véronique » deviendra rapidement une des principales reliques du christianisme et sera conservée, dès le VIII siècle, à Saint-Pierre de Rome.
Sainte Véronique est la patronne des lingères, des laveuses et des photographes.
