"Madonna Enthroned with St. Matthew" is a notable oil painting created in 1588 by the Italian Baroque artist Annibale Carracci. This work is an exemplar of Carracci's early style, which harmoniously blends elements of the High Renaissance with the emerging dynamism of the Baroque period. The painting depicts the Virgin Mary seated on a throne, holding the Christ Child, with Saint Matthew the Evangelist present, identifiable by his traditional iconographic attribute, the angel, which in this context serves as his inspiration.

Annibale Carracci, along with his brother Agostino and cousin Ludovico, played a pivotal role in the development of the Baroque style in painting. They sought to move away from the artificiality of Mannerism in favor of a return to the naturalism and classical ideals of Renaissance masters like Raphael and Titian. "Madonna Enthroned with St. Matthew" reflects this shift, showcasing Carracci's skill in rendering figures with a sense of weight and volume, and his ability to create a coherent spatial environment that unites the divine and earthly realms.

The painting is significant for its balanced composition, the serene dignity of the figures, and the masterful use of chiaroscuro to model form and create depth. Carracci's work on this piece predates his later, more mature works in Rome, such as the frescoes in the Palazzo Farnese, yet it already demonstrates his innovative approach to composition and his deep understanding of the human form. "Madonna Enthroned with St. Matthew" remains an important example of the transitional phase of Italian art as it moved towards the full expression of the Baroque era.
