"Madonna della Sedia" or "Madonna of the Chair" is a renowned Renaissance oil painting by the Italian artist Raphael, also known as Raffaello Sanzio of Urbino. 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 was a popular shape during the Renaissance for domestic religious art. Measuring approximately 71 cm in diameter, the artwork is housed in the Palazzo Pitti, Florence, Italy.

Raphael's "Madonna della Sedia" exemplifies the High Renaissance's ideals of beauty, harmony, and grace. The composition showcases the Virgin Mary embracing the Christ Child, who is seated on her lap, while a young Saint John the Baptist attentively looks on. The figures are arranged in a closely knit, pyramidal grouping, enveloped in a warm and intimate atmosphere. Raphael's use of chiaroscuro, the technique of using strong contrasts between light and dark, adds depth and volume to the figures, enhancing their three-dimensionality.

The title "Madonna della Sedia" derives from the Italian word for chair, referring to the prominently featured chair on which the Virgin Mary is seated. This domestic setting contributes to the painting's sense of immediacy and accessibility, inviting viewers into a moment of tender familial affection. Raphael's skillful rendering of the textures of fabric, flesh, and wood, along with his nuanced use of color, further enriches the visual experience of the work.

Critically acclaimed for its emotional depth and technical mastery, "Madonna della Sedia" is considered one of Raphael's most accomplished religious works. It reflects the artist's ability to convey divine and earthly love through the intimate and relatable depiction of sacred figures. The painting remains a significant contribution to Renaissance art, illustrating Raphael's profound influence on the development of Western painting.
