"The Madonna and Child with an Infant St. John the Baptist, Engrisaille" is a notable work attributed to the Italian Renaissance master Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio of Urbino), created during the High Renaissance period. This piece is distinctive for its use of grisaille, a technique that employs a monochromatic palette of greys to create an image with the illusion of sculpture. The term "engrisaille" refers to this specific method of painting entirely in shades of grey or another neutral greyish color.

The artwork depicts the Virgin Mary with the Christ Child and a young St. John the Baptist, a common subject in Renaissance art known as the "Sacra Conversazione," which typically shows the Virgin and Child with saints in a unified scene. Raphael's interpretation of this theme is renowned for its tender representation of the figures and the harmonious composition that reflects the artist's mastery of form and space.

Although the exact date of creation is uncertain, it is believed to have been produced during Raphael's Florentine period (1504–1508) when he was influenced by the works of Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. The painting's subtle tonal variations and the delicate modeling of the figures' forms demonstrate Raphael's skillful adaptation of Leonardo's sfumato technique and his own innovative approach to composition and figure arrangement.

The provenance of "The Madonna and Child with an Infant St. John the Baptist, Engrisaille" is not fully documented, and the painting's history prior to its emergence in art historical records remains a subject of scholarly research.

As an exemplary work of Raphael's artistic genius, this painting continues to captivate scholars and art enthusiasts alike, offering insight into the development of Renaissance art and the enduring legacy of one of its greatest practitioners.
