"Sorrow" is a drawing by the Dutch post-impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh, produced in early April 1882. The work is significant as it marks a period in Van Gogh's artistic development when he was deeply influenced by the darker aspects of human existence and the emotional depth of his subjects. The drawing depicts a pregnant woman, Clasina Maria Hoornik, known as Sien, who was Van Gogh's companion and model during his time in The Hague.

The artwork is executed in carpenter's pencil, chalk, and pen on paper, measuring 44.5 cm × 27.5 cm. "Sorrow" is characterized by its somber tone and the expressive use of line that would become a hallmark of Van Gogh's later works. The figure of Sien is shown with bowed head and bent posture, embodying a sense of melancholy and resignation. The drawing is not only a reflection of the subject's personal struggles but also an expression of Van Gogh's empathy towards the hardships faced by the lower classes.

Van Gogh's correspondence with his brother Theo provides context to the creation of "Sorrow." In a letter dated 22 April 1882, Vincent described the work and his intention to convey deep emotion through the drawing. The piece is part of a series of studies of Sien that Van Gogh undertook during this period, which were instrumental in his development as an artist who captured the human condition with raw intensity.

"Sorrow" is held in the collection of the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, and it remains an important example of the artist's early figurative work, showcasing his burgeoning talent and the themes that would resonate throughout his career. The drawing is often cited in discussions of Van Gogh's relationship with Sien and his exploration of the lives of the urban poor, making it a significant piece within the oeuvre of one of the most influential figures in the history of Western art.
