The figure of Christ sits in a posture of contemplation, his hand resting against his cheek, while his body bears the marks of the Passion. Beham, a member of the group known as the Little Masters, demonstrates his technical proficiency through the use of precise, rhythmic hatching to define form and shadow. The composition is compact, focusing the viewer on the physical suffering and psychological weight of the subject.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the background, the artist includes symbolic elements: the cross and instruments of the Passion are visible on the left, while a distant city wall suggests the setting of Jerusalem. The radiating lines around Christ's head serve as a simplified nimbus, drawing attention to the face. The stark contrast between the black ink and the paper surface is characteristic of the woodcut medium during the early sixteenth century in Germany. Beham was heavily influenced by the work of Albrecht Dürer, and this print reflects the interest in human anatomy and emotional expression that defined the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work is a fine example of the small-scale prints produced for private devotion and collectors. The economy of line and the clarity of the narrative demonstrate the skill required to translate complex theological concepts into a portable, accessible format. The print remains a clear representation of the Northern Renaissance aesthetic, where technical discipline meets intense religious focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/madonna-nursing-hans-baldung-grien\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMadonna Nursing - Hans Baldung Grien — Hans Baldung Grien\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/virgin-and-child-before-an-archway-albrecht-durer\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eVirgin and Child before an Archway - Albrecht Dürer — Albrecht Dürer\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sebald Beham","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58485175222607,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58485180596559,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58485180629327,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58485180662095,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58485180694863,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58485180727631,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58485180760399,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58485180793167,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58485180825935,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58485180858703,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58485180891471,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58485180924239,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Man-of-Sorrows_Poster_CompositorV1_1786356972624.jpg?v=1786835851","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/man-of-sorrows-sebald-beham","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
