''The Sistine Madonna'', also known as ''Madonna di San Sisto'', is one of the most celebrated oil paintings by the Italian High Renaissance artist Raphael. Commissioned in 1512 by Pope Julius II for the church of San Sisto, Piacenza, the painting was later moved to Dresden from Rome in the 18th century and is now housed in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister. The painting's iconic status is attributed to its masterful composition, the serene and enigmatic expressions of the figures, and its profound influence on the arts and popular culture.

The artwork depicts the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child, flanked by Saint Sixtus and Saint Barbara, and is renowned for the two cherubic figures at the bottom, which have become ubiquitous in popular iconography. The Madonna stands on clouds, set against a backdrop of a curtained heavenly realm with a host of cherubim, creating a sense of an apparitional vision. Raphael's use of sfumato creates a softness that enhances the ethereal quality of the painting.

Measuring approximately 265 cm × 196 cm (104 in × 77 in), ''The Sistine Madonna'' is celebrated for its vibrant color palette, the delicate modeling of the figures, and the harmonious interaction between the human and divine. The painting's composition, with the Madonna and Child at its center, creates a vertical axis that is both stable and dynamic, a testament to Raphael's skill in creating spatial harmony.

The work has been widely analyzed, copied, and referenced in various media, and its influence extends beyond the realm of art history into literature, music, and philosophy. As a masterpiece of the Renaissance, ''The Sistine Madonna'' continues to captivate audiences with its beauty and remains a testament to Raphael's genius as a painter and a key figure in the development of Western art.
