''The Madonna of the Goldfinch'' (''Italian: Madonna del Cardellino'') is a renowned Renaissance painting by the Italian artist Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino), created around 1505-1506. This masterpiece is an exemplar of High Renaissance art, showcasing Raphael's skill in composition, color, and form. The painting depicts the Virgin Mary with the Christ Child and the young John the Baptist, a common subject known as the ''Sacra Conversazione'' in the art of the period.

In this artwork, the figures are arranged in a pyramidal composition, a hallmark of Renaissance aesthetic principles, which is designed to give a sense of harmony and balance. The Virgin Mary is seated in the center, with the young Jesus on her right and John the Baptist on her left. Jesus and John are interacting with a goldfinch, which is a symbolic reference to the Passion of Christ; the bird is often associated with the crucifixion because of the legend that it acquired its red markings from trying to remove the thorns from Christ's brow during the crucifixion, and its presence foreshadows Christ's future sacrifice.

The background of the painting features a distant landscape with rocky formations and a winding river, which adds depth to the composition and reflects the influence of Leonardo da Vinci, whom Raphael had studied. The serene and idyllic setting contrasts with the poignant symbolism of the goldfinch, creating a multi-layered narrative.

"The Madonna of the Goldfinch" underwent a significant restoration process that was completed in 2008, which revived the painting's original vibrant colors and repaired damage caused by a previous restoration attempt. The painting is currently housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, and remains one of Raphael's most admired works, celebrated for its beauty and emotional resonance.
