"Madonna with St. George" is a renowned oil painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Antonio Allegri da Correggio, commonly known as Correggio. This artwork, dating from around 1530-1532, is a significant example of Correggio's mature style, which is characterized by its dynamic composition, soft modeling of forms, and the use of chiaroscuro—the contrast of light and shadow to achieve a sense of volume in modeling three-dimensional objects and figures.

The painting depicts the Virgin Mary, also known as the Madonna, holding the Christ Child, with St. George, the Christian martyr and soldier saint, presented alongside them. St. George is traditionally identified by his armor and the dragon he is often depicted slaying, which symbolizes his legendary battle where he rescued a princess and slayed a dragon, a tale that became part of Christian hagiography.

In "Madonna with St. George," Correggio's mastery in rendering the tenderness of the Madonna's interaction with the Christ Child is evident, as is his skill in portraying the protective presence of St. George. The figures are set against a landscape that recedes into the distance, a technique that enhances the three-dimensionality of the composition and demonstrates Correggio's understanding of perspective.

The painting is notable for its harmonious color palette and the delicate treatment of light, which bathes the figures in a gentle glow, creating a sense of divine radiance. This effect is a hallmark of Correggio's work and contributes to the overall sense of grace and serenity in the painting.

"Madonna with St. George" is held in high esteem not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its influence on the development of Baroque art. The dynamic arrangement of figures and the emotive quality of the scene would inspire later artists who sought to evoke movement and emotion in their work.

The painting is part of the collection of the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden, Germany, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic significance and beauty. As a testament to Correggio's genius, "Madonna with St. George" remains an important work in the canon of Renaissance art, reflecting the artist's ability to convey spiritual themes with a profound sense of humanity.
