Pygmalion, in the ancient Greek mythology, is a sculptor who fell in love with the statue of the goddess Aphrodite he had carved.
As per the Mythology,
In time, Venus (Aphrodite)'s festival day came, and Pygmalion made offerings at the altar of Venus. There he quietly wished that his ivory sculpture would be changed to a real woman. When he returned home, he kissed his ivory statue and found that its lips felt warm. He kissed it again and touched her breasts with his hand and found that the ivory lost its hardness. Venus had granted Pygmalion's wish.
