It was proven fake by carbon dating and by logic (the face is drawn on the fabric like a portrait. Had it actually been burned in as the legend claims then the face should be very distorted when the cloth is laid flat).

The shourd has been dated to the 13th or 14th century by about 8 different teams.

Each of those teams examining the same small piece from the same corner of the cloth that was damaged by a fire, and perhaps was cloth that had been sown on later to mend a piece that had been burned off. Its not like there's no evidence for the cloths authenticity. Skeptics say that the cloth was fabricated in Turin, Italy in the 1300s. However pollen was found on the cloth from a plant that only grows near Jerusalem. And then the face itself. The image of the face is close to many of the early eastern Orthodox iconic images of Jesus, rather than anything common to Catholics in Italy in the fourteenth century. The eastern and western churches weren't really on the best of terms in that era.

It could just be a work of art and nothing more.

Ummm... the pollen was faked as well. The original cloth that consisted of the pollen in question was given to them by Max Frei, a swiss police criminologist who was well known for faking evidence. The strand in question was deliberately contaminated. As for your statement about the face, no one knew who Jesus looked. The way Jesus is thought to look today was made popular by many of the early paintings that were painted of him that were well past his living days. I believe the first was painted during the rennaissance.
