"Madonna del Pesce," also known as the "Madonna of the Fish," is a renowned painting by the Italian High Renaissance master Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio of Urbino). Created circa 1513-1514, this artwork is a significant example of Raphael's mature period, showcasing his exceptional ability to blend divine and human elements within a harmonious composition. The painting is notable for its depiction of the Virgin Mary with the Christ Child, accompanied by two saints, Saint Jerome and the Archangel Raphael, who is guiding the young Tobias as per the narrative from the Book of Tobit.

The title "Madonna del Pesce" derives from the presence of a fish in the hands of Tobias, which is a central element in the story of his and the Archangel Raphael's journey. The fish is symbolic of healing and salvation, as Tobias uses it to cure his father's blindness in the biblical tale. Raphael's painting captures this theme of divine intercession and care, as the figures are portrayed with a serene grace that was characteristic of the artist's work.

Measuring approximately 215 cm × 158 cm, the painting was originally commissioned for the church of San Domenico in Naples but is now housed in the Museo del Prado, Madrid, after being acquired by the Spanish royal collection. The "Madonna del Pesce" is admired for its rich color palette, the delicate rendering of the figures, and the subtle interplay of gazes and gestures that create a narrative and devotional focus within the piece.

Raphael's work on this painting reflects his mastery of space and form, as well as his ability to convey theological concepts through art. The inclusion of Saint Jerome, a Doctor of the Church, holding an open book, possibly representing his translation of the Bible, further emphasizes the painting's religious significance. The "Madonna del Pesce" remains a testament to Raphael's artistic legacy and continues to be studied for its aesthetic beauty and iconographic depth.
