"Madonna of the Chair" or "Madonna della Seggiola" is a renowned Renaissance oil painting by the Italian master Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino, commonly known as Raphael. Created circa 1513-1514, this artwork is celebrated for its intimate portrayal of the Virgin Mary with the Christ Child and John the Baptist. The painting is notable for its circular format, known as a tondo, which was a popular style during the Renaissance for domestic art intended for private devotion.

The composition of "Madonna of the Chair" is lauded for its harmonious arrangement and the tender, familial interaction it depicts. Mary is shown seated, embracing the young Jesus who sits on her lap, while a youthful John the Baptist looks on devoutly. The figures are closely entwined in a compact, pyramidal structure, which, along with the circular frame, creates a sense of unity and completeness.

Raphael's use of color and light imbues the scene with warmth and vitality, while his mastery of chiaroscuro—the contrast of light and shadow—adds a three-dimensional quality to the figures. The intimate scale and round format of the painting suggest it was intended for personal contemplation, allowing the viewer to engage closely with the holy subjects.

The "Madonna of the Chair" is often praised for its humanistic portrayal of sacred figures, a hallmark of the High Renaissance style that Raphael helped to define. By depicting the Virgin and Child in a familiar, domestic setting, Raphael made the divine more accessible to the viewer, a revolutionary approach that influenced countless artists of his time and thereafter.

Today, the painting is housed in the Palazzo Pitti, in the Galleria Palatina, in Florence, Italy, and continues to be admired for its beauty and its significance in the history of art. Its enduring appeal lies in Raphael's ability to convey the sacred through the lens of the everyday, creating a work that is both spiritually profound and universally relatable.
