- 15—Sacred and Profane Love
Titian

Oil on Canvas
Galleria Borghese
The clothed figure is profane love while the nude figure is sacred love. Profane is finite, and so the landscape behind the clothed figure ends. The landscape behind the nude figure is endless, and goes on for as far as the eye can see. Profane love is superficial while sacred love is everlasting.

- 18—Madonna dei Palafrenieri
Caravaggio

Galleria Borghese
This painting was intended for st. Peters but was taken down due to lack of decorum. The figures are shown as common people because piety begins in the home.

Bernini
1620
Marble
Galleria Borghese
Figura serpentina is used to create movement, but it is nothing new. Bernini does something with this sculpture that only a painter would do: the three ages of man. The old man's wrinkly skin contrasts with that of the young, muscular man holding him, and there is a child at the back.
- 21—Pluto and Proserpina
Bernini
1620
Marble
Galleria Borghese
Bernini captures the money shot, or the very moment that Proserpina is captured. The two bodies are intertwined on the bottom and separated up top because they are together for half of the year and apart for the other half. The two bodies are juxtaposed, Pluto is the god of death and his body is hard and unyielding. Proserpina is the goddess of spring and her body is soft and delicate.
- 22—Apollo and Daphne
Bernini
1625
Marble

- 23—David
Bernini
1620
Marble
Galleria Borghese
Unlike Michelangelo's David, Bernini's is sculpted during the culminating moment, or the action shot. The viewer is caught in the middle of the conflict. Anticipation vs moment of. The furrow in the brow of Bernini's David is the same as on Michelangelo's David
- 24—Truth Unveiled by Time
Bernini

- 28—Tabernacle
Torrigiani

The tabernacle is designed to look very light, almost like it is floating. The artist achieves this effect by giving the angels a very relaxed pose, and by having them use only one finger to support the weight of it.
- 29—Funerary monument of Sixtus V
Domenico Fontana
Marble
Saint Mary Major
This shows Sixtus's devotion to God, as it was the first funerary monument of a Pope to be kneeling in prayer. There is a humble expression on the statue's face as it looks at the tabernacle. Additionally, the tiara next to the statue expresses the authority of the papacy
