The Madonna of the Magnificat is a painting of circular or tondo form by the Italian Renaissance painter Sandro Botticelli. It is now in the galleries of the Uffizi, in Florence. The work portrays the Virgin Mary crowned by two angels. She is writing the opening of the Magnificat on the right-hand page of a book; on the left page is part of the Benedictus. In her left hand she holds a pomegranate. Botticelli created his Madonna in the early 1480s. At this time it was in all likelihood the most famous picture of the Virgin. There are several copies of the painting, including one in the Louvre, one in the Pierpont Morgan Library in New York.
