- Pygmalion
Original artwork description
The inspiration of the painting comes from ancient Greek mythology, according to which the Cypriot king Pygmalion created a statue of the most perfect and beautiful woman. He talked to her and hugged her. The goddess Aphrodite revived the woman from the statue and the king named her Galatea and married her.
The story of Pygmalion represents humanity's age-old desire for perfection and eternal happiness.
It has always been an inspiration for many works of art, but it also inspired the Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw to write a play of the same name, which became the legendary musical My Fair Lady at the beginning of the 20th century.
