"Madonna and Child with St Anne and the Young St John," also known as "The Burlington House Cartoon," is a drawing by Leonardo da Vinci, created in 1507-08. This highly esteemed artwork is a charcoal and chalk drawing on paper, showcasing Leonardo's masterful use of sfumato, a technique that allows for subtle gradations of light and shadow, imbuing the scene with a lifelike quality. The piece is significant for its depiction of the Virgin Mary, seated on the lap of her mother, St Anne, while the infant Jesus Christ reaches toward a lamb, symbolizing his future sacrifice. The young St. John the Baptist is also present, observing the scene. This composition reflects a complex interplay of human relationships and divine themes, characteristic of Leonardo's approach to religious subjects.

The drawing is notable for its large size, measuring approximately 141.5 x 104.6 cm, and is housed in the National Gallery, London. It is considered one of Leonardo's pivotal works, illustrating his deep understanding of human anatomy, emotion, and the natural world. The "Madonna and Child with St Anne and the Young St John" is a prime example of the High Renaissance style, emphasizing harmony, balance, and the integration of figures within a coherent spatial setting.

Leonardo's innovative approach to composition and his ability to convey tender human interactions set this work apart. The figures are arranged in a pyramidical structure, a technique Leonardo often employed to create a sense of stability and focus within his compositions. The drawing was likely a preparatory study for a painting that was never completed, a common practice for Leonardo, who left many of his projects in various stages of completion.

The "Burlington House Cartoon" has had a significant impact on the history of art, influencing generations of artists and captivating audiences with its beauty and depth of emotion. Its preservation and display in the National Gallery allow for continued appreciation and study, ensuring its place as a pivotal work in the oeuvre of Leonardo da Vinci and in the broader context of Renaissance art.
