"Madonna della Sedia" or "Madonna of the Chair" is a renowned oil painting by the Italian High Renaissance artist Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino, known as Raphael. Created circa 1513-1514, this masterpiece is celebrated for its intimate portrayal of the Virgin Mary, the Christ Child, and Saint John the Baptist. The painting is distinguished by its circular format, known as a tondo, which enhances its intimate and familial atmosphere, a characteristic that diverges from the more formal and distant depictions of religious figures prevalent during the Renaissance.

Raphael's work is notable for its masterful use of color and light, creating a warm, inviting scene that seems to transcend the boundary between the divine and the earthly. The figures are arranged in a closely knit, pyramidal composition, with the Virgin Mary enveloping the young Jesus and Saint John in a tender embrace, symbolizing maternal love and the close relationship between the figures. The Madonna's gaze directly engages the viewer, creating a sense of direct communication and emotional resonance.

The title "Madonna della Sedia" derives from the Italian word for chair, referring to the chair in which the Virgin Mary is seated, further emphasizing the domestic and human aspect of the divine scene. This choice of setting and the circular format are thought to draw inspiration from the iconography and familial representations of the Holy Family in contemporary Florentine art, as well as possibly reflecting the influence of Leonardo da Vinci's work on Raphael.

Currently housed in the Palazzo Pitti, Florence, "Madonna della Sedia" remains one of Raphael's most beloved and admired works, encapsulating the artist's ability to convey divine beauty and human warmth. Its enduring appeal lies in its universal themes of love, family, and spirituality, making it a masterpiece of Renaissance art that continues to inspire and move viewers centuries after its creation.
