"Man of Sorrows with Mary and John and Two Holy Women" is a late 15th to early 16th-century Flemish painting attributed to the group of artists known as the Flemish Unknown Masters. This artwork, dating from approximately 1495 to 1505, represents a devotional image that was common in the art of the period, focusing on the suffering of Christ after the Crucifixion. The painting is characterized by its detailed depiction of the figures and the emotional intensity of the scene.

The central figure of the composition is Jesus Christ, shown as the "Man of Sorrows," a term that refers to the portrayal of Christ in a state of physical agony and emotional anguish following his crucifixion, yet before his death. This iconography emphasizes the humanity of Christ and his suffering for mankind's sins. Surrounding Christ are the Virgin Mary and Saint John the Evangelist, who are often included in scenes of the Passion to represent the close followers of Jesus who witnessed his suffering. Additionally, two holy women, who are not specifically identified but may represent Mary Magdalene and another pious woman from the Gospels, are included in the scene, further emphasizing the communal mourning for Christ's ordeal.

The painting is executed with the fine detail and rich color palette typical of Flemish art of the time. The artists' use of light and shadow, as well as the intricate rendering of textiles and textures, demonstrate the technical skill and the heightened realism that Flemish painters were renowned for. The emotional expressions of the figures, ranging from deep sorrow to devout contemplation, reflect the religious fervor and the emphasis on personal piety that were hallmarks of the devotional practices of the era.

"Man of Sorrows with Mary and John and Two Holy Women" is a significant work that contributes to our understanding of the religious and artistic culture of the Low Countries at the turn of the 16th century. While the specific identities of the Flemish Unknown Masters remain elusive, their collective contribution to the Northern Renaissance is evident in the enduring quality and spiritual depth of their works, such as this poignant depiction of Christ and his followers.
