"The Finding of the True Cross" is a painting by the German Mannerist artist Hans von Aachen, created in the late 16th or early 17th century. The artwork depicts the legendary event of Saint Helena, mother of the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great, discovering the True Cross on which Jesus Christ was crucified. The painting is notable for its detailed representation of the historical and religious scene, showcasing von Aachen's skill in composition and his ability to convey narrative through visual art.

Hans von Aachen (1552–1615) was known for his expertise in portraiture and historical scenes, often blending Northern Renaissance influences with Italian Mannerist styles. In "The Finding of the True Cross," von Aachen's use of vivid colors, dynamic figures, and intricate details exemplify his mastery of the Mannerist aesthetic, characterized by elongated forms and complex, often crowded, compositions.

The painting serves as a visual interpretation of the legend, which became a popular subject in Christian art, symbolizing the rediscovery and veneration of Christianity's most significant relic. Von Aachen's rendition of this event is imbued with the dramatic intensity and emotional depth that are hallmarks of his work. The piece not only reflects the religious fervor of the period but also provides insight into the cultural and artistic milieu of the late Renaissance.

While the exact date of the painting's creation and its current location are not definitively known, "The Finding of the True Cross" remains an important work within Hans von Aachen's oeuvre, contributing to the understanding of the post-Reformation religious landscape and the evolution of European art at the turn of the 17th century.
