Amorous Scene (after Titian)[1] is a painting (c. 1512, canvas 74.5 x 66.5 cm) at the Casa Buonarroti which shows a man sliding his hand under the woman's breast.

"Numerous replicas of this composition are known, in public and private collections: the one in Casa Buonarroti is the most famous, along with the one in the English royal collections. There has been long debate over the inventor of this popular scene: the names of Giorgione, Sebastiano del Piombo, Pordenone, Romanino, Paris Bordon, and Cariani have all been put forward, but the most likely candidate still seems to be Titian, to whom by family tradition Rosina Vendramin attributed the work in her possession. For stylistic reasons, the original of the Titianesque composition has been dated to around 1512.[2]

In 1980 Mauro Lucco attributed the example in Casa Buonarroti to Paris Bordon.
