Painting Description
"The Madonna of the Pinks" ("La Madonna dei Garofani") is a small oil painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio of Urbino), created around 1506-1507. The painting depicts the Virgin Mary playing with the Christ child and giving him carnations. The carnation symbolizes the Passion of Christ, with the red petals representing the blood of Jesus and the flower's medicinal properties suggesting the healing nature of the Christ's sacrifice.
This artwork is celebrated for its intimate portrayal of the Madonna and Child, showcasing Raphael's mastery in capturing the tenderness of their relationship. The figures are modeled with subtle gradations of light and color, reflecting the influence of Leonardo da Vinci, whom Raphael had studied. The detailed rendering of the botanical elements, typical of the Renaissance period's interest in nature, adds to the painting's depth and realism.
Originally attributed to different artists, the painting's authorship was confirmed as Raphael's after significant scientific analysis and historical research in the early 21st century. "The Madonna of the Pinks" is considered a significant work in Raphael's oeuvre, illustrating his skill in the small-scale execution of complex emotional and physical expressions. The painting is housed in the National Gallery, London, having been acquired in 2004 after a significant fundraising campaign to prevent its sale to the Getty Museum in the United States.
