The ancient Greek epigram, The Force of Love on Land and Sea (Forza d'amore) was diffused throughout Europe in the seventeenth century by Cesare Ripa in his Iconologia, in a representation of a naked winged boy standing in a landscape, holding a fish in one hand and a garland of flowers in the other. The Iconologia was published in 1603 in Rome and republished in Milan, 1992.
