The "Madonna of Victory" is a renowned Renaissance painting created by the Italian artist Andrea Mantegna in 1495. This altarpiece, also known as "Virgin and Child Surrounded by Six Saints and Gianfrancesco II Gonzaga," is a significant work that commemorates the victory of Marquis Francesco II Gonzaga over the French at the Battle of Fornovo in 1495. The painting was commissioned by the Marquis himself as an ex-voto to express gratitude for the divine intervention he believed led to his triumph.

The artwork masterfully combines religious iconography with a political statement, reflecting the era's intertwining of sacred and secular powers. It depicts the Virgin Mary seated on a high throne, holding the Christ Child, surrounded by six saints: Michael, Andrew, Longinus, George, Elizabeth, and a holy monk, possibly Jerome or Aloysius Gonzaga. The inclusion of these saints is symbolic, each representing different aspects of Christian virtue and protection, which align with the themes of victory and divine favor.

Gianfrancesco II Gonzaga is portrayed kneeling in armor at the foot of the throne, looking up at the Virgin and Child, emphasizing his role as a pious ruler seeking heavenly endorsement. The painting is notable for its detailed rendering of textures, such as the intricate armor and luxurious fabrics, as well as its use of perspective, which gives depth to the scene and highlights Mantegna's skill in creating spatial complexity.

Originally placed in the Church of Santa Maria della Vittoria, which was built to house the painting, it now resides in the Louvre Museum in Paris. The "Madonna of Victory" is a testament to Mantegna's mastery of composition and his ability to convey narrative through art, making it a significant piece of the Italian Renaissance and a valuable part of art history.
