Pygmalion #[nn]

Sandrine Revel brings a hauntingly delicate touch to this French graphic adaptation freely inspired by Jean-Jacques Rousseau's Pygmalion, published by Les Arènes BD in 2018. The cover captures the myth's tender obsession beautifully — a sculptor's outstretched hand reaches toward the profile of a woman who exists somewhere between sketch and sculpture, her form rendered in soft pencil lines as if only half-emerged from the page itself. It's a visually poetic invitation to explore one of mythology's most intimate stories through Revel's graceful, painterly artwork.
