The Madonna of Loreto, also known as Madonna del Velo or Madonna of the Veil, is a painting finished around 1509-1510 by the Italian High Renaissance painter Raphael. It is housed in the Musée Condé of Chantilly, France. This work is one of the most copied works of Raphael with over one hundred known copies, and depicts the Virgin playing with the Christ child with a delicate veil and Joseph is peering over her shoulder. It was thought to be Gianfrancesco Penni's work until 1979 and received its name from a copy at the Basilica della Santa Casa in Loreto, which was at one time thought to be the original. This particular piece was given by Pope Julius II to the Santa Maria del Popolo.
