''The Madonna of the Yarnwinder'' is a subject depicted by Leonardo da Vinci in at least one, and possibly two, paintings begun in 1499 or later. Leonardo was recorded as being at work on a painting of this subject in Florence in 1501; it is uncertain whether he completed it by the time of his departure from the city in 1506. The composition shows the Virgin Mary seated in a landscape with the Christ Child, who reaches for a yarnwinder, symbolic of the cross and the Passion.

Two versions of the ''Madonna of the Yarnwinder'' are widely accepted as partly by Leonardo himself: the Buccleuch Madonna and the Lansdowne Madonna. Both are executed in oil on wood panel and measure approximately 50 by 37 centimeters. The Buccleuch version is held by the Duke of Buccleuch and is displayed in the Scottish National Gallery on loan, while the Lansdowne Madonna is in a private collection. These two paintings are the subject of scholarly debate, with some experts attributing parts of the works to Leonardo and others to his pupils and followers, possibly working under his supervision.

The ''Madonna of the Yarnwinder'' is significant not only for its attribution to one of the most renowned artists of the Italian Renaissance but also for its thematic and compositional innovations. The intimate interaction between the figures, the psychological depth, and the use of sfumato—a technique developed by Leonardo to create a soft transition between colors—are characteristic of the artist's approach to painting. The work has also been the subject of art historical interest due to its complex provenance and the fact that it has been stolen twice in its history, once in 2003 from Drumlanrig Castle in Scotland, before being recovered in 2007.

The painting's iconography has been widely studied; the yarnwinder serves as an allusion to the Crucifixion, with the threads representing Mary's foreknowledge of Christ's fate. This prefigures the Passion, a theme that Leonardo explored in other works as well. The ''Madonna of the Yarnwinder'' exemplifies Leonardo's lifelong interest in the themes of motherhood, the human experience, and the natural world, and it continues to be a subject of fascination for art historians, scholars, and the public alike.
