This is one of the earliest known works by Heemskerck. The expressive nature of the subject of Christ as the Man of Sorrows lent itself well to Heemskerck's own brand of Mannerism and he treated it on several further occasions throughout the course of his career.
The painting is signed and dated on a cartellino upper right: MARTINVS HEEMSKERIC INVENIT/ ANNO MDXXV.
