Sacred and Profane Love, Titian, Palazzo Borghese, Rome.

LOVE, SACRED AND PROFANE, Titian, Palazzo Borghese, Rome; canvas, figures a little less than life-size. Sacred and Profane Love, or Artless and Sated Love, as sometimes called, personified by two women, one nude, the other clothed in silk attire, seated on the edge of a fountain in a pleasure-ground surrounded by a beautiful landscape; Cupid, behind, between the two figures, plashing in the water. Painted about 1503; described by Ridolfi in 1648, when it was in the Palazzo Borghese; intermediate history unknown. The execution shows how strongly Titian felt at the time the influence of Palma Vecchio.—C. & C., Titian, i. 62; Ridolfi, Maraviglie, i. 257.
