As a leading figure in the Romantic movement in Belgian painting, Gallait was celebrated for his historical and genre paintings, which often conveyed powerful psychological depth and social commentary.

The painting "Sorrow" is particularly significant as it exemplifies the Romantic era's fascination with the more somber and profound aspects of the human experience. In this work, Gallait employs a subdued palette and meticulous attention to detail to evoke a sense of melancholy and contemplation. The central figure is often interpreted as embodying the universal experience of loss, her downcast eyes and somber expression resonating with viewers across different cultures and eras.

Measuring 91.5 by 99 cm, "Sorrow" is executed in oil on canvas, a medium that allows for the rich layering of colors and textures that contribute to the painting's emotional intensity.
