"Portrait of a Cardinal, Three-quarter-length, Seated, Holding a Document" is a notable painting by the Italian High Renaissance master Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio of Urbino), created during the early 16th century. This work exemplifies Raphael's skill in portraiture, capturing the dignity and authority of a high-ranking church official, presumed to be a cardinal, through a sophisticated use of color, composition, and psychological insight.

The painting depicts the cardinal in a three-quarter-length pose, seated and holding a document, which may symbolize his intellectual pursuits or administrative duties. The subject's attire is rendered with meticulous attention to the textures and folds of the fabric, indicative of his status and the opulence associated with the ecclesiastical hierarchy of the time. Raphael's mastery in rendering the human form is evident in the lifelike representation of the cardinal's features, imbuing the portrait with a sense of individual character and a contemplative mood.

While the exact identity of the cardinal portrayed remains a subject of scholarly debate, the painting is celebrated for its artistic merits and as an example of Raphael's portraiture during a period when he was also engaged in significant projects such as the frescoes in the Vatican's Stanze di Raffaello. The work is further distinguished by its historical context, reflecting the cultural and political milieu of the Papal Court in Renaissance Rome.

"Portrait of a Cardinal, Three-quarter-length, Seated, Holding a Document" is held in high esteem for its aesthetic qualities and as a testament to Raphael's ability to convey the social and spiritual dimensions of his subjects.
