Those who read the Greek myths, can't remember the myth of Galatea. A talented sculptor named Pygmalion carved a statue so beautiful he fell in love with her. Thanks to his strong sense of the statue failed to come to life. Elena Diakonova, the heroine of this article, also in a sense was the Galatea. During her life, she was a Muse to several geniuses. But, at the same time, she was in something and Pygmalion. Anyway, one of them owe her their success.

Do Not forget that this woman was called not only Galatea. She was a witch, and Cinderella... But in the history of world art she came in just as Elena the Beautiful, Gandiva, the divine and peerless Gala.

Life due to tuberculosis

The Origin of this Charmer, and the first seventeen years of her life absolutely did not give any hope that the girl is promised to a brilliant future. She was the daughter of a humble Kazan official, who died early. The family moved to Moscow. Here with a girl is a misfortune — she gets sick. The diagnosis does not inspire hope: it was usual for those years of consumption, tuberculosis. Contributed to the healing of her stepfather (lawyer). Family podsobral some money, and Elena Diakonova went to the mountains of Switzerland.

She had already resigned to the fact that will not survive. This is reflected in her character: she became a loner, very sharp, she didn't trust people. But there was a man who managed to melt this thick shell of ice. He was a charismatic young Parisian eugène Grendel. He wrote poems. Father of Eugene believed stihopletstvo nonsense and forbade him to engage in literature. But the son did not listen to him. He came to Helena and read her a poem of his own composition. And she gradually relented. Gradually she began to believe. In those days she began to call themselves Galai (accent was made on the last syllable). Perhaps from the French word meaning “the feast, the recovery”.

One day, the artist took her for a walk in the mountains. And there, over the sea, he began a decisive assault on beauty. The Spaniard clung to her greedy lips and asked what she wanted he did to her. She seriously asked the artist to blow it up. This artist was the great Salvador Dali.
