Galatea. She was the statue whom Aphrodite breathed life in as a reward to her sculptor Pygmalion.
The sculptor was named Pygmalion.
Hardly. Pygmalion was a misogynist king and sculptor, whose punishment for hating women was to fall in love with his own statue of Aphrodite.
Pygmalion is a sculptor in Greek mythology. He is known for falling in love with a statue he created named Galatea, which was later brought to life by the goddess Aphrodite.
The main conflict in the story of Pygmalion and Galatea is Pygmalion's love for an ivory statue he has carved, Galatea, and his desire for her to come to life. The conflict arises from the tension between Pygmalion's deep emotional connection to the statue and his yearning for her to be a living being. Ultimately, the resolution occurs when the goddess Aphrodite grants Pygmalion's wish and brings Galatea to life.
In mythology, Pygmalion was a king of Cyprus who carved and then fell in love with a statue of a woman, which Aphrodite brought to life as Galatea. Pygmalion is also the name of a play by George Bernard Shaw (his play was named after the mythological story). The movie "My Fair Lady" was based on his play.

In the myth, Pygmalion made a statue out of ivory. He asked Aphrodite for a woman that looked like the statue he made. When he kissed the statue, it kissed back. Aphrodite had granted his wish. George Bernard Shaw made a play with a professor of English that makes a bet that he can train a Cockney flower girl to pretend to be a duchess.
Pygmalion was the first human to create a perfect woman. He created a statue which was to him, perfect. Unfortunately for him, he fell in love with the woman. During a festival to Aphrodite he wanted to pray to her to make her into a real woman, but did not have the courage to ask her. Aphrodite, however, understood Pygmalion who took pity on him and turned her into a real woman.
In the story of Pygmalion, a sculptor named Pygmalion falls in love with a statue he has carved, named Galatea.
