When most people think of sex dolls, they typically think of being alone at home – but have you ever considered these dolls being used in art? Sex dolls have been included in a variety of different artworks and mediums, so let’s get into it!

Ovid’s Pygmalion from Greek Mythology is the earliest example I could find of a man falling in love with a doll. If you haven’t read it, it’s a great read and has inspired a number of other works.
