As Massari underlines (see Bibliographic References), the source for this print has been variously ascribed to Raphael (Bartsch), Peruzzi (Hirth) or Marcantonio himself (Shoemaker). The subject has been debated as well: Mars (Davidson), the astrological sign of Aries (Dunand-Lemarchand), without reaching a consensus.
