"The Madonna of the Harpies" is a renowned High Renaissance painting by the Italian artist Andrea del Sarto, completed in 1517. The artwork is an altarpiece, originally created for the convent of San Francesco dei Macci in Florence. It is now housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, where it remains a significant example of del Sarto's mastery and an important piece of Renaissance art.

The painting depicts the Virgin Mary standing on a pedestal flanked by two harpies, mythical creatures with the body of a bird and the head of a woman, which in Christian iconography symbolize the presence of evil. However, in this context, they may also represent the triumph of virtue over vice, as the Virgin stands calmly above them. The Virgin is shown with the Christ Child, who reaches out to the young St. John the Baptist, while St. Francis stands to the left and St. John the Evangelist to the right, both gazing devoutly at the central figures.

Measuring 208 cm × 178 cm (82 in × 70 in), the painting is notable for its harmonious composition, the serene beauty of the figures, and the use of color. Del Sarto's skillful rendering of textures and his subtle gradations of tone are evident in the lifelike depiction of the subjects. The work is also admired for its architectural setting, which demonstrates del Sarto's knowledge of perspective and his ability to integrate figures with their environment in a convincing manner.

"The Madonna of the Harpies" is considered one of Andrea del Sarto's masterpieces, showcasing his ability to blend the naturalism of the early Renaissance with the idealized grace that would come to characterize the High Renaissance. The painting's name, which refers to the harpies at the base, is a later addition; the original title is unknown. The work has been widely studied for its iconography, composition, and del Sarto's technique, contributing significantly to the understanding of Renaissance art and its religious contexts.
