Description

When King Midas is granted a wish for showing kindness to a stranger, he wishes that all he touches would turn to gold. But when he accidentally turns his beloved daughter into a golden statue, the king learns that a blessing can also become a curse. A magnificent rendering of one of the most well-known Greek myths from a talented mother/daughter team.
