Keith Gardner comments, 'Russell Flint originally entitled this The Birth of Aphrodite, writing it on the back of the picture. At the last moment, he changed his mind and drew a line through it - writing above in a clear hand, 'Rococo Aphrodite'. Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love, was the Lisping Goddess of his book with that title' (loc. cit.).
