The Picture of Dorian Gray’s eponymous protagonist, afraid of losing his youth and beauty, wishes for a portrait that will absorb the effects of time. Over the years, the painting continues to grow increasingly hideous, while Dorian Gray – and his debauchery – remain unchanged. As the consequences of his actions finally catch up with him, Wilde weaves a cautionary tale of hedonism and Faustian bargains. Though deeply controversial when it was first published, The Picture of Dorian Gray has since inspired numerous tributes and adaptations.
