''Madonna del Cardellino'' or ''Madonna of the Goldfinch'' is a Renaissance oil painting by the Italian artist Raphael, completed around 1505-1506. The painting, which measures 107 cm × 77 cm (42 in × 30 in), is a sacra conversazione, a popular form of devotional painting in which the Virgin Mary is depicted in conversation with saints. In this work, however, the saints are replaced by the infant Jesus and John the Baptist, emphasizing the human relationships within the holy family.

The artwork is renowned for its tender representation of the figures and the harmonious composition, which showcases Raphael's mastery of color and form. The Virgin Mary is shown seated, with the Christ Child and the young John the Baptist at her sides. The goldfinch in the painting is a symbolic element, held by Christ and alluding to his future Passion, as the bird is associated with the crown of thorns.

The painting's background features a distant landscape with ruins, which was a common motif in Renaissance art symbolizing the transition from the old order (paganism) to the new (Christianity). The ''Madonna of the Goldfinch'' is also noted for its geometric structure, with the figures arranged in a pyramidal composition that adds to the stability and serenity of the scene.

Originally housed in the collection of the Medici family in Florence, the painting has a storied history, including surviving an earthquake in 1548 that severely damaged it. It underwent a significant restoration that was completed in 2008, which addressed centuries of dirt accumulation, discolored varnish, and previous restoration attempts.

Today, ''Madonna of the Goldfinch'' is housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, and remains one of Raphael's most admired works, exemplifying the High Renaissance ideals of beauty, harmony, and grace.
