The Dome of the Chigi Chapel, also known as the Chigi Chapel Dome, is a significant artistic work by the renowned Italian Renaissance artist Raphael Sanzio, commonly known as Raphael. Located within the Santa Maria del Popolo church in Rome, the dome adorns the Chigi Chapel, which was commissioned by the wealthy banker Agostino Chigi, one of the most prominent patrons of the arts during the Renaissance period. Raphael's work on the chapel began in the early 16th century, around 1513, and showcases his mastery of architectural design and his innovative approach to space and decoration.

The dome itself is a masterpiece of High Renaissance art, reflecting the integration of architecture, painting, and sculpture—a hallmark of Raphael's work. It is adorned with mosaics and stucco figures that exemplify the artist's ability to create a harmonious and spiritually uplifting space. The iconography of the dome is complex, featuring astrological symbols, images of the planets, and allegorical figures that reflect Chigi's personal interests and the intellectual climate of the time.

Raphael's design for the dome was part of a larger project for the chapel, which also included the creation of a series of statues and the design of a funerary monument for Agostino Chigi. However, Raphael's untimely death in 1520 left the work incomplete. The project was eventually finished by other artists, including Gian Lorenzo Bernini, who added to the chapel in the 17th century, incorporating his own Baroque style while respecting Raphael's original vision.

The Dome of the Chigi Chapel stands as a testament to Raphael's artistic genius and his impact on the development of Renaissance art and architecture. It remains an important site for both art historical study and for visitors seeking to experience the grandeur of Renaissance art in situ. The chapel and its dome are not only a reflection of Raphael's personal style but also an embodiment of the cultural and intellectual aspirations of the Renaissance in Rome.
