''Marriage of the Virgin'' (1302-1305) is a renowned fresco by the Italian painter Giotto di Bondone, located in the Scrovegni Chapel (also known as the Arena Chapel) in Padua, Veneto, Italy. This work forms part of a larger cycle of frescoes that Giotto completed in the chapel, which is widely considered to be one of his masterpieces and a seminal work of the early Renaissance. The ''Marriage of the Virgin'' depicts the biblical scene of the wedding of Mary and Joseph, a narrative drawn from the apocryphal Protoevangelium of James rather than the canonical gospels.

In this fresco, Giotto showcases his innovative approach to art, breaking away from the stylized Byzantine traditions that dominated the Middle Ages. He introduces a more naturalistic style, with figures that possess weight and volume, and are grounded in a convincingly rendered three-dimensional space. The composition is carefully constructed to guide the viewer's eye to the central action, where a priest joins Mary and Joseph's hands in matrimony, while other suitors stand by, one of whom is depicted breaking his rod in frustration—a reference to the legend that Joseph's rod blossomed as a sign that he was divinely chosen to be Mary's husband.

Giotto's use of chiaroscuro, the treatment of light and shadow, and the emotional expressiveness of the figures, were revolutionary for the time and signaled a shift towards a more human-centered representation of sacred stories. The ''Marriage of the Virgin'' is not only significant for its artistic innovations but also for its role in the development of narrative fresco cycles that would become a hallmark of Renaissance art. The fresco is a key example of Giotto's ability to convey complex theological ideas through the medium of painting, and it remains an important work for the study of art history and the evolution of Western painting.
