The Picture of Dorian Gray
Samenvatting
The Picture of Dorian Gray, by Oscar Wilde, is a Gothic horror and philosophical novel published in 1890. It centers on a beautiful young man whose wish becomes reality: his portrait will age instead of him. As Dorian chooses a life focused on pleasure and moral decline, his outward appearance stays unchanged, while the painted image gradually reveals a disturbing transformation that reflects his actions. Through this contrast, Wilde examines the relationship between beauty and ethics, showing how vanity and hedonistic thinking can lead to consequences that cannot be undone.
