"Madonna with the Siskin" (also known as "Madonna with the Goldfinch") is an oil painting by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created around 1506. The artwork is notable for its detailed representation and the use of symbolism, which was characteristic of Dürer's work during this period. The painting depicts the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child, who is playing with a European goldfinch, also known as a siskin. The bird is often associated with the Passion of Christ, symbolizing the future crucifixion due to the thistle seeds it eats, which are reminiscent of the Crown of Thorns.

In this composition, Dürer showcases his mastery of color and texture, as well as his ability to convey religious themes with emotional depth and human tenderness. The figures are set against a dark background, which serves to highlight their serene and introspective expressions. The Madonna is portrayed with a gentle and maternal demeanor, while the Christ Child exhibits a playful innocence. Dürer's attention to detail is evident in the intricate rendering of textures, from the softness of the skin to the fineness of the hair and the elaborate fabrics.

"Madonna with the Siskin" is part of a larger body of Dürer's work that explores the theme of the Madonna and Child, a subject that he revisited throughout his career. This painting is particularly significant as it reflects the influence of Italian Renaissance art on Dürer, following his first trip to Italy from 1494 to 1495. The influence of artists such as Giovanni Bellini and Andrea Mantegna can be seen in the composition and the rendering of the figures.

The painting is held in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden, Germany, and remains an important example of Northern Renaissance art, demonstrating the exchange of artistic ideas between the North and South of Europe during this period. "Madonna with the Siskin" continues to be studied for its artistic merit and its contribution to the understanding of Dürer's oeuvre and the broader context of Renaissance art.
