Sacred and Profane Love

Sacred and Profane Love

Painting of about 1516 by Titian (Borghese Gallery, Rome). An early work, painted when he was still strongly influenced by Giorgione, it is richly sensuous and poetic in feeling.

The title by which it was known in Titian's lifetime, when it was in the collection of cardinal Scipio Borghese, was Beauty Clothed and Unclothed - the symbolism lends itself to various interpretations.
