The Sacred and Profane Love (Voluptas e virtus). Detail of the erotic marble relief from the Farnese Collection on display in the Secret Cabinet (Gabinetto Segreto) in the National Archaeological Museum in Naples, Campania, Italy. Probably a modern fake based on a Greek or Roman original. Female figure with a comic mask sitting in the sanctuary of Faun, while Cupid and Psyche kissing sensuously in the background.
