''Madonna of the Meadow'' (Italian: ''Madonna del Prato''), also known as ''Madonna with the Christ Child and Saint John the Baptist'', is a highly esteemed Renaissance painting executed by the Italian High Renaissance artist Raphael Sanzio. Created in 1506, during Raphael's Florentine period, this oil on panel artwork measures 113 cm × 88 cm (44 in × 35 in) and is currently housed in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Austria.

The painting depicts the Virgin Mary seated in a natural setting, a meadow, with the young Jesus Christ on her lap and his cousin Saint John the Baptist, identifiable by his reed cross, presenting a flower to Jesus. This scene is a sacra conversazione, a holy conversation, where the figures are serenely engaged in a silent dialogue. The composition is noted for its graceful arrangement and the tender, intimate interaction between the figures.

Raphael's work is celebrated for its clarity of form and ease of composition, and ''Madonna of the Meadow'' is no exception. The figures are arranged in a pyramidal composition, a hallmark of the High Renaissance, which contributes to the stability and harmony of the piece. The landscape in the background features a clear blue sky and distant mountains, which adds depth and contributes to the idyllic atmosphere of the painting.

The ''Madonna of the Meadow'' is often praised for its vibrant color palette and Raphael's masterful use of sfumato—a technique of soft, gradual transitions between colors and tones, similar to that used by Leonardo da Vinci. This technique enhances the three-dimensionality of the figures and the realism of the scene.

Raphael's painting is a significant work of the Renaissance, reflecting the period's artistic values of beauty, balance, and serenity. It continues to be studied and admired for its aesthetic qualities and its influence on the development of Western art.
