"Man of Sorrows" is a notable work from the Dutch Late Gothic period, created by Maerten van Heemskerck in 1532. The work derives its name from a lyric in Isaiah 53:3 and serves to depict Jesus Christ in the final throes of his passion, eliciting compassion and devotion in the viewer.

Artistically, "Man of Sorrows" encompasses the morose atmosphere of Christ's Passion through precise detailing - Christ’s physique marked by the wounds of crucifixion, and his poignant facial expression captured masterfully by Heemskerck. The painting can be considered as Heemskerck’s dialogue with traditional Christian iconography, yet it includes individualistic interpretations that set the work apart.

The painting is a testament to Heemskerck's creative prowess and his ability to incorporate his own personal style while working within traditional themes, thus positioning him as a significant artist in the transition from the Late Gothic to the Northern Renaissance period.

While "Man of Sorrows" is undoubtedly a crucial example of Heemskerck's oeuvre, it also serves as a representation of the broader artistic, religious, and cultural milieu of 16th-century Netherlands. As such, the artwork offers crucial insights into the transitional styles and themes from the era, making it a significant artifact for the understanding of the period's art history.
