"St. Cecilia" is an oil painting by the Italian High Renaissance master Raphael, created circa 1516-1517. The artwork, which measures approximately 220 cm × 136 cm (87 in × 54 in), is housed in the Pinacoteca Nazionale in Bologna, Italy. The painting was commissioned by Elena Duglioli dall'Olio, a Bolognese noblewoman, who desired a work depicting the patron saint of music, St. Cecilia, for her personal devotion.

In this masterpiece, Raphael depicts St. Cecilia as the central figure, surrounded by an assembly of saints, including St. Paul, St. John the Evangelist, St. Augustine, and Mary Magdalene. The composition is notable for its harmonious blend of the earthly and the divine, with St. Cecilia gazing heavenward as she listens to the celestial music of angels, while the instruments of earthly music lie neglected or broken at her feet.

The painting is celebrated for its exquisite rendering of the figures and its use of color and light to create a sense of spiritual transcendence. Raphael's skill in conveying the saints' inner ecstasy and his ability to harmonize the human with the divine are evident in this work. "St. Cecilia" is considered one of Raphael's most poignant and expressive religious paintings, reflecting both the influence of his predecessors and his own unique artistic vision.

The painting has been the subject of extensive art historical research and has been widely admired for its emotional depth and technical brilliance. It remains a significant example of Raphael's late work and contributes to his reputation as one of the greatest painters of the Renaissance.
