The Virgin and Child with the Infant St. John the Baptist is a tempera painting by the Italian Renaissance master Sandro Botticelli. The tondo, painted in Florence between 1490 and 1500, depicts a vital subject of the Italian Renaissance iconography: the holy maternity. The painting is presently housed in the São Paulo Museum of Art.
