Titian responds to Correggio's paintings with his work entitled Sacred and Profane Love. Two blond girls that are similar enough to look like twins are surrounded by symbols that exalt beauty, extreme pleasures, and the physical union of bodies. The sensuality in this painting spreads from the girls to nature, exciting the landscape almost like a shiver: then twenty-five year old Titian invites you to brush your fingers along their ultra-fresh skin, to feel their golden red hair.
