La Madone Du Grand-duc, or The Grand Duke's Madonna, is an oil painting on wood by Italian artist Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino, known as Raphael. Believed to have been created around 1505, during Raphael's early period in Florence, the painting is characterized by the artist's distinct and sensitive interpretation of divine tenderness and human emotion.

The artwork is a prime example of a Madonna and Child, a common iconographic theme in Christian art where the Madonna (Mary) is depicted holding the baby Jesus. In La Madone Du Grand-duc, Raphael depicts Madonna with affectionately downcast eyes, holding the infant Christ in her arms. The positioning of the figures, along with the delicate and soft painting techniques employed by Raphael, exudes an ambiance of serenity and intimate devotion.

The painting gets its name from Ferdinand III of Tuscany, also called the Grand Duke of Tuscany, who possessed it in the 18th century. Currently, La Madone Du Grand-duc is housed in the Palazzo Pitti collection in Florence, Italy, continuing to attract thousands of visitors due to Raphael's brilliant technique and handling of emotive subject matter.

The Grand Duke's Madonna is one of Raphael's many explorations into the Madonna and Child theme, which in his hands was transformed from a conventional religious trope into a deeply personal and universally resonant expression of maternity and piety. Each iteration by Raphael carries its own weight of compositions, expressions, and interpretations, and La Madone Du Grand-duc stands as a strong testament to Raphael's mastery and invaluable contributions to the High Renaissance period.
