Painting Description
The Ansidei Madonna is a revered oil painting on wood by the Italian High Renaissance artist Raphael, completed around 1505. This altarpiece, also known as the Madonna del Velo or Madonna with the Blue Diadem, is a prime example of Raphael's artistry during his Florentine period and showcases his mastery in composition and his ability to convey serene beauty and harmony.
The painting was originally commissioned for the Ansidei family chapel in the church of San Fiorenzo in Perugia, hence its name. It depicts the Virgin Mary seated on a majestic throne, holding the Christ Child, with Saint Nicholas of Bari to her right and Saint John the Baptist to her left. The figures are arranged in a calm and balanced composition, set against a landscape visible through a window behind them, a feature that illustrates the influence of Leonardo da Vinci on Raphael's work.
The Ansidei Madonna is notable for its geometric structure and the subtle interplay of lines and forms, which create a sense of depth and solidity. Raphael's use of color is also significant, with the rich blues and reds contributing to the painting's visual impact. The Virgin's pose, with the Christ Child on her lap, is reminiscent of the iconic Byzantine Hodegetria type, yet Raphael infuses the scene with a tender humanity that was characteristic of the Renaissance.
After changing hands several times, the painting was acquired by the National Gallery in London in 1884, where it remains to this day. The Ansidei Madonna is considered one of Raphael's most important early works, reflecting both his artistic heritage and the innovative spirit that would come to define his later masterpieces.
