"The Picture of Dorian Gray" follows the life of a young, beautiful man named Dorian Gray, who becomes infatuated with his own portrait painted by artist Basil Hallward. Influenced by the hedonistic worldview of Lord Henry Wotton, Dorian wishes that he could remain forever young while the portrait bears the marks of his age and sins. As Dorian indulges in a life of excess and moral decay, he discovers that his wish comes with dire consequences. His actions lead to a haunting path of guilt and despair, ultimately revealing the darkness that lurks beneath his youthful facade. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
