Answer: In Christian art the goldfinch is sometimes seen near the Christ Child; it symbolises the the forthcoming suffering of Christ. It is most famously seen in Raphael's Madonna of the Goldfinch in which John the Baptist (as a child) offers a goldfinch to the child Jesus. The goldfinch is also regarded as a symbol of determination and endurance.
