"Pygmalion and the Image" is a series of paintings by Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones, a prominent Pre-Raphaelite artist. Created between 1868 and 1870, the series consists of four panels that depict scenes from the story of Pygmalion, as told in Ovid's "Metamorphoses." This mythological narrative follows Pygmalion, a sculptor who falls in love with a statue he has carved. Moved by his devotion, the goddess Venus brings the statue to life, and it becomes his wife.

The four panels, titled "The Heart Desires," "The Hand Refrains," "The Godhead Fires," and "The Soul Attains," illustrate the progression of Pygmalion's emotional journey from longing to fulfillment. Burne-Jones's work is noted for its rich, detailed imagery and the use of vibrant colors, which enhance the romantic and dreamlike quality of the myth. Each panel not only captures a specific moment in the narrative but also reflects Burne-Jones's interest in themes of idealized beauty and transformation.

These works are exemplary of Burne-Jones's style and his contributions to the Pre-Raphaelite movement, emphasizing emotion, detailed narrative storytelling, and the revival of medieval motifs and techniques. "Pygmalion and the Image" remains significant in the study of 19th-century British art, illustrating the intersection of classical themes with the modern artistic expression of the time.
