The story of pygmalion is about a sculptor who falls in love with an ivory statue of a woman he has made. Venus, the goddess of love, brings the statue to life, and Pygmalion marries it. While Aylmer as a brilliant scientist and natural philosopher who has abandoned his experiments for a while to marry the beautiful Georgiana the woman he created. The comparison of both poems are both have these obsession or fascination to woman and then invented a woman who they think is perfect for them then soon marry it. The differences are pygmalion envision a woman who is goddess of love and created from none existing character while in the birthmark story the woman who's Georgiana was created based from the reference of pygmalion and named as mother of all human (Eve) because of the fact that she had more of the characters of her creator, and reveals created a tampering woman whom the narrator suggest. In shorter term. Aylmer copied the reference of pygmalion creation.
