"Amor Sacro e Amor Profano" (Sacred and Profane Love) is a renowned oil painting by the Italian Renaissance master Tiziano Vecellio, commonly known as Titian, created circa 1514. The artwork is celebrated for its enigmatic subject matter and exquisite representation of contrasting themes through allegorical figures. It is housed in the Galleria Borghese in Rome, Italy.

The painting depicts two female figures, one clothed and one nude, seated on opposite ends of a classical sarcophagus that is being used as a fountain. The clothed figure, traditionally interpreted as representing Sacred Love, is adorned in sumptuous fabrics and gazes pensively at the viewer. The nude figure, representing Profane Love, is associated with Venus, the goddess of love, and is shown with a more earthly allure, her gaze directed towards the clothed figure. Between them, Cupid, the god of desire, is seen playing with water, symbolizing the interplay between the sacred and the profane.

The background of the painting is divided into two contrasting landscapes. On the side of Sacred Love, the landscape is characterized by a church and a clear sky, suggesting the purity and divinity of spiritual love. In contrast, the side of Profane Love features a more lush and fertile landscape, indicative of sensual and earthly pleasures.

"Amor Sacro e Amor Profano" is often noted for its rich color palette, a hallmark of Titian's work, and the masterful use of light and shadow to create depth and dimension. The painting's precise meaning has been the subject of much scholarly debate, with interpretations ranging from a straightforward contrast between celestial and earthly love to more complex readings involving Neoplatonic philosophy and the humanist ideals of the Renaissance.

Commissioned by Niccolò Aurelio, a secretary to the Council of Ten in Venice, for his marriage to Laura Bagarotto, the painting may also contain personal symbolism relevant to the couple's union. The work's intricate iconography and the ambiguity of its narrative have made it a focal point for art historians and critics seeking to unravel the complexities of Titian's artistic intentions.

Titian's "Amor Sacro e Amor Profano" remains a masterpiece of the High Renaissance, admired for its visual splendor and its profound exploration of the duality of love, reflecting both the spiritual aspirations and the temporal desires of the human experience.
