How sad it is! I shall
grow old, and horrible, and dreadful. But this picture will remain always
young… If it were only the other way!
Wilde’s first and only published novel recounts the story of
handsome Dorian Gray who upon having his portrait painted desires that it will
age and grow ugly while he may remain eternally beautiful. The painting, which
reflects each of Gray’s sins and transgressions, haunts him until it finally
becomes unbearable. In this dark tale of duplicity and mortality. Wilde creates
a world where art and reality collide.
