Pair of Lovers is a 1550 oil by Altobello Melone, a Mannerism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest.
The painting shows a man and a woman in a close embrace. The man is on the left, wearing a dark hat and a red headband, with a brown vest over a white shirt. The woman is on the right, wearing a green dress and a necklace with a pendant. Her left hand is on the man's shoulder. In the background, there is a landscape with a body of water and a mountain range. The sky is cloudy, and the overall mood of the painting is somber. This painting is reminiscent of the works of Altobello Melone.
