Painting of Christ as the Man of Sorrows, crowned with thorns, seated half-nude with a white cloth, a halo above him and crosses and rocky hills behind.

Christus als Man van Smarten

Christ sits half-draped in a white cloth, crowned with thorns and framed by a pale halo, his wounds visible on his side and hands. A cross and a rocky landscape under a cloudy blue sky fill the background, in a painted Northern Renaissance style.

Español: Cristo como Varón de Dolores

Cristo está sentado, cubierto parcialmente con un paño blanco, coronado de espinas y enmarcado por un halo pálido, con sus heridas visibles en el costado y las manos. Una cruz y un paisaje rocoso bajo un cielo azul nublado llenan el fondo, en un estilo pictórico del Renacimiento del norte.
