Pygmalion
he's not a greek god hes a sculptor that fell in love with one of his statues and asked aphrodite to make her real and she did
Yes. Pygmalion was a sculptor in Cyprus who fell in love with one of his creations. Aphrodite was so moved by his devotion that she allowed the statue to come to life. Her name was Galatea and their son, Paphos, was the founder-king of a city still on the island to this day.
If you mean the original ancient Greek Pygmalion: he was a sculptor who fell in love with one of his own sculptures (one of a beautiful young woman). Should you mean the main character of the play Pygmalion, later turned into the famous musical My Fair Lady: that was Henry Higgins, a professor of Phonetics.
Pygmalion
In Ovid's narrative, Pygmalion was a sculptor who carved a woman out of ivory. According to Ovid, after seeing the Propoetides prostituting themselves, he was not interested in women, but his statue was so realistic that he fell in love with it. He offered the statue gifts and eventually prayed to Venus. She took pity on him and brought the statue to life. They married and had a son, Paphos.
This is a story from ancient Greece. It tells of how Pygmalion fell in love with a statue that he created when he decided that women were inferior.
Galatea is a statue in the play "Pygmalion" by George Bernard Shaw. Pygmalion sculpted Galatea and fell in love with her.
He really disliked painting. He considered himself a sculptor.
