Man of Sorrows (Geertgen tot Sint Jans)
''Man of Sorrows'' is a small oil on wood Early Netherlandish painting completed c. 1485-1495. Generally attributed to Geertgen tot Sint Jans, it comprises an unusually complex and suffocating spatial design, and combines themes of the mocking of Jesus with a representation of the grieving mother.〔Devonshire; Rosen, 348〕 The panel is seeped in iconography and pathos; Christ looks out at the viewer with one foot in and one foot out of the grave; around him angels hover holding objects associated with his passion and death.
==Description==
The painting shows Christ on Calvary carrying a wooden cross, his knees buckling from its weight.〔Ridderbos et al, 152〕 He wears the Crown of Thorns; its spikes spill blood across his face. His arms are heavily lacerated by what appear to be whip marks, and he weakly raises his right hand to display the deep wound to his side, where according to scripture, he was pierced by a lance after his death on the cross. Most startlingly, he stands in his own tomb, a stone sarcophagus.〔 His eyes stare directly at the viewer, a device identified by Panofsky as referring to the biblical text "Behold what I have suffered for you; what have you suffered for me",〔Panofsky, 124〕 earlier identified by art historian, Alois Riegl as evoking an "external unity" where Christ's gaze becomes one with the viewer's world.〔Ridderbos et al, 153〕 More directly Wouter Slob writes that Christ's expression "confronts the contemporary viewer with the consequences of ''his'' sinning; the blood, splashing from the panel, flows because of his guilt."〔Slob, Wouter. "Dialogical Rhetoric: An Essay on Truth and Normativity After Postmodernism". Springer, 2002. 40. ISBN 1-4020-0909-7〕
To Christ's left Mary Magdalene kneels praying, her arms resting on the sarcophagus, her eyes downcast, her plaintive expression a study of grief. At the foot of the cross, Jesus' mother, Mary, laments with her arms folded, large drops of tears pouring down her face.〔 She is supported by John the Evangelist with only his head and hands visible, wiping his tears with the back of his hand.〔〔A motif borrowed from Robert Campin's ''Entombment''〕 Angels dressed in white robes, their eyes swollen with tears, carry the remaining Arma Christi, including the lance, Holy Sponge and the three nails from the cross.〔
