The ''Madonna della Sedia'' or ''Madonna della Seggiola'' is a celebrated Renaissance oil painting by the Italian artist Raphael, also known as Raffaello Sanzio of Urbino. Created circa 1513-1514, this artwork is renowned for its circular format, known as a tondo, and its intimate portrayal of the Virgin Mary with the Christ Child and a young John the Baptist. Raphael's mastery in capturing the tenderness of the familial bond and the serene beauty of the figures has made this painting one of his most admired devotional images.

The ''Madonna della Sedia'' showcases Raphael's ability to blend divine subjects with a human warmth that was revolutionary at the time. The composition is notable for its close-up, tightly cropped view of the subjects, which enhances the feeling of closeness and affection between the figures. Mary is depicted with a gentle expression, embracing her son, Jesus, who is seated on her lap, while John the Baptist, identifiable by his reed cross, looks on devoutly. The figures are arranged in a pyramidal structure, a compositional device that Raphael frequently employed to create a sense of harmony and stability.

The title of the painting, which translates to "Madonna of the Chair," refers to the depiction of Mary seated on a wooden chair, a detail that adds to the domestic and informal atmosphere of the scene. The rich color palette, the intricate patterns of the clothing, and the masterful use of chiaroscuro to model the forms contribute to the painting's visual impact.

Raphael's ''Madonna della Sedia'' is often cited as a prime example of High Renaissance art, reflecting the period's ideals of beauty, balance, and grace. The work is currently housed in the Palatine Gallery of the Palazzo Pitti in Florence, Italy, where it continues to be a highlight of the collection and a testament to Raphael's enduring legacy in the history of art.
