The Madonna of Loreto, also known as the Madonna del Velo or Madonna of the Veil, is a celebrated oil painting by the eminent Italian High Renaissance artist Raphael (Raffaello Sanzio of Urbino). Created circa 1510, this artwork is a quintessential example of Raphael's mastery in depicting the Madonna and Child theme, a recurrent subject in Christian art symbolizing the Virgin Mary with the infant Jesus. The painting is renowned for its serene beauty, harmonious composition, and the delicate interplay of colors and light that typify Raphael's mature work.

The Madonna of Loreto showcases the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child, with both figures enveloped in a soft, ethereal light that accentuates their divine presence. The inclusion of a veil, from which the alternate name "Madonna of the Veil" is derived, adds a layer of symbolism and depth, suggesting themes of modesty, motherhood, and the sacred mystery of the Incarnation. Raphael's skillful use of sfumato—a technique of fine shading that produces a soft, gradual transition between colors—enhances the painting's spiritual and emotive appeal.

Originally commissioned for a private devotion, the painting's precise original location remains a subject of scholarly debate, reflecting the broader challenges in tracing the provenance of many Renaissance artworks. Over the centuries, The Madonna of Loreto has been celebrated for its aesthetic perfection and has held a significant influence on the development of Marian iconography in Western art.

Today, The Madonna of Loreto is housed in the Musée Condé, Chantilly, France, where it continues to attract scholars, art enthusiasts, and general visitors alike, drawn to its artistic beauty and the timeless religious devotion it represents. Through its enduring legacy, Raphael's masterpiece remains a pivotal work in the study of Renaissance art, reflecting the era's artistic achievements and its nuanced approach to religious themes.
