The Strozzi Altarpiece, also known as the "Strozzi Madonna," is a celebrated Gothic panel painting by the Italian artist Andrea di Cione, better known as Orcagna. Completed in 1357, this altarpiece was commissioned by the wealthy Strozzi family for the family chapel in the church of Santa Maria Novella in Florence, Italy. Orcagna, a prominent painter, sculptor, and architect of the Florentine school, was renowned for his work that bridged the gap between the Byzantine and Renaissance styles.

The Strozzi Altarpiece is a quintessential example of Orcagna's mastery in combining the gold and grandeur of Byzantine art with the emerging naturalism of the early Renaissance. The central panel of the altarpiece depicts the Virgin Mary enthroned, holding the Christ Child, and is flanked by a host of angels and saints. The figures are rendered with a sense of volume and three-dimensionality that was innovative for the time, while the intricate use of gold leaf and detailed patterning pays homage to the traditional Byzantine aesthetic.

The altarpiece's iconography is rich with symbolism and reflects the religious fervor and artistic sophistication of 14th-century Florence. The presence of the Strozzi family's patron saints in the painting underscores the personal and devotional nature of the commission. Orcagna's work on the Strozzi Altarpiece is particularly noted for its architectural elements, which showcase his skill as a designer of both space and structure, a talent that also informed his architectural projects, such as the Tabernacle at Orsanmichele.

The Strozzi Altarpiece remains a significant work in the history of art, not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its representation of the cultural and spiritual aspirations of its era. Today, it continues to be studied and admired for its beauty and historical importance, and it holds a place of honor in the collection of the Museo Nazionale di San Marco in Florence.
