The Presentation of the Virgin at the Temple is a 1534–1538 painting by Titian. It depicts the three year-old Virgin Mary entering the Temple of Jerusalem. It was commissioned by the fraternity based in the Scuola Grande di Santa Maria della Carita, a building later incorporated into the Galleria dell'Accademia, where the work now hangs.
