"Mater Dolorosa (with outstretched hands)" is a renowned religious painting by the Italian Renaissance master Tiziano Vecellio, known as Titian, dated to 1554. This artwork depicts the Virgin Mary in a state of profound grief, a representation of the Mater Dolorosa, or the Sorrowful Mother, a traditional iconography in Christian art that reflects Mary's suffering as she mourns the death of her son, Jesus Christ. The painting is notable for its emotive power, capturing the Virgin's sorrow through her expressive gesture of outstretched hands, as if appealing to the viewer or to the heavens for solace.

Titian, one of the leading figures of the Venetian school of the 16th century, was celebrated for his masterful use of color and his ability to convey deep human emotion. In "Mater Dolorosa (with outstretched hands)," he utilizes a rich palette and employs his signature loose brushwork to create a sense of movement and immediacy that enhances the emotional impact of the scene. The work is a prime example of Titian's late style, characterized by a more dramatic and expressive approach to religious subjects.

The painting's historical context is rooted in the Counter-Reformation, a period when the Catholic Church sought to reaffirm its doctrines and inspire piety among the faithful through the arts. Titian's "Mater Dolorosa" would have served as a devotional image, intended to elicit empathy and reflection on the Passion of Christ from its viewers.

While the exact location and provenance of "Mater Dolorosa (with outstretched hands)" may not be well-documented, the work is an important piece within Titian's oeuvre, reflecting both his artistic mastery and the religious sensibilities of his time. It continues to be studied and admired for its poignant portrayal of Mary's sorrow and its contribution to the visual language of Renaissance art.
