Encyclopedic overview

Sorrowing Old Man (At Eternity's Gate) is an oil painting by Vincent van Gogh that he made in May 1890 in Saint-Rémy de Provence based on an early lithograph. The painting was completed in early May at a time when he was convalescing from a severe relapse in his health some two months before his death, which is generally accepted as a suicide.

In the 1970 catalogue raisonné, it was given the title Worn Out: At Eternity's Gate.
