"Our Lady of the Chair" refers to Raphael's famous circular painting, Madonna della Seggiola (Madonna of the Chair), which depicts the Virgin Mary embracing the Christ Child while young John the Baptist watches. The name comes from the "chair" or "seggiola" on which the figures are seated, a detail that contributes to the artwork's tender and intimate composition. The original is located in the Palazzo Pitti in Florence, Italy.
Artwork: Madonna della Seggiola is an oil painting on a circular poplar wood panel, created by Raphael around 1514.
Subject: The painting shows a warm, tender embrace between Mary and the infant Jesus, with a devout young Saint John the Baptist looking on.
Composition: The figures are arranged in a harmonious, rounded composition, a style that made the work highly popular. The use of warmer colors in this work is thought to be influenced by other artists of the time, like Titian.
Origin: It is believed the original painting was commissioned by Pope Leo X and is a prime example of a circular composition among Raphael's works.
Location: The original painting is part of the permanent collection at the Palazzo Pitti in Florence, Italy.
