Abstract
After Pygmalion, King of Cyprus, had sculpted and fallen in love with his perfect woman, Galatea, his repeated prayerful overtures to the gods were answered. Venus gave life to her. Some two thousand years later in Shaw's play Pygmalion, Henry Higgins turned a cockney flower girl into an elegant lady, although he relied on language rather than love.
