Description

The Picture of Dorian Gray, a timeless novel by Oscar Wilde, explores the interplay of beauty, vanity, and ethical decay. The story follows Dorian Gray, a handsome young man who becomes enamored with his own portrait painted by the artist Basil Hallward. Under the influence of the hedonistic Lord Henry Wotton, Dorian wishes that he could remain eternally youthful while his portrait ages, allowing him to indulge in a life of excessive pleasures without consequence. As he descends into a world of moral corruption, the portrait reflects his corrupted soul, bearing the scars of his transgressions. Wilde's sharp wit and richly layered prose encapsulate themes of duality, influence, and the quest for identity. The narrative poses profound questions about the nature of beauty and the darker sides of human experience, making The Picture of Dorian Gray a compelling exploration of the conflict between aestheticism and ethical responsibility in a world rife with temptation.
