The Madonna della Sedia, also known as The Madonna of the Chair, is a renowned painting by the Italian High Renaissance master Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio of Urbino). Created around 1513-1514, this work is celebrated for its intimate portrayal of the Virgin Mary with the Christ Child and the young John the Baptist. The painting is executed in oil on wood and measures approximately 71 cm in diameter, making it one of Raphael's most famous tondo (circular) compositions.

The Madonna della Sedia is notable for its departure from the more formal and idealized representations of the Madonna and Child that were prevalent during the Renaissance. Instead, Raphael presents a tender and naturalistic scene, capturing a moment of maternal affection and familial warmth. The Virgin Mary is depicted seated, holding the Christ Child in her arms, while John the Baptist, identifiable by his traditional attributes of a camel-skin garment and a reed cross, looks on with reverence. The figures are arranged in a tight, pyramidal composition that enhances the sense of intimacy and connection between them.

Raphael's masterful use of color, light, and texture in The Madonna della Sedia contributes to the painting's lifelike quality and emotional depth. The rich, warm tones of the Virgin's clothing, the delicate rendering of the Christ Child's flesh, and the soft, diffused light that bathes the scene all demonstrate Raphael's exceptional skill and sensitivity as a painter. The background is kept relatively simple, focusing attention on the figures and their expressions.

The painting is housed in the Palazzo Pitti in Florence, Italy, where it continues to be admired by art enthusiasts and scholars alike. The Madonna della Sedia remains a testament to Raphael's genius and his ability to convey profound human emotions through his art, solidifying his reputation as one of the greatest artists of the Renaissance.
