"The Virgin Showing the Man of Sorrows" is a notable painting by the German-born Early Netherlandish painter Hans Memling. Created in the late 15th century, specifically around 1470, this artwork is a poignant representation of Christian religious themes, encapsulating the pathos of Christ's suffering through the intimate and sorrowful interaction between the Virgin Mary and Christ. The painting is executed in oil on oak panel, a medium typical of the period and region, which allowed Memling to achieve fine details and a rich palette that enhances the emotional depth of the scene.

This work is part of a genre known as the "Man of Sorrows" in Christian art, which focuses on the physical agony and emotional suffering of Christ after the Crucifixion, often showcasing his wounds. In Memling's interpretation, the Virgin Mary is depicted holding an anguished Christ partially supported by her, emphasizing her role in the narrative of Christ's Passion. The composition and the figures' expressions are meticulously crafted to evoke empathy from the viewer, reflecting the devotional practices and theological currents of the time.

"The Virgin Showing the Man of Sorrows" is considered an important work in Memling's oeuvre, illustrating his skill in blending narrative, emotion, and spirituality. The painting is also significant for its influence on the portrayal of Mary and Christ in Northern Renaissance art, marking a shift towards more intimate and humanized religious imagery. Today, the painting is housed in the Museum of Fine Arts in Strasbourg, France, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
