- Characters
- Basil
- An artist, and a friend of Lord Henry. Basil becomes obsessed with Dorian after meeting him at a party.
He claims that Dorian possesses a beauty so rare that it has helped him realize a new kind of art;
through Dorian, he finds “the lines of a fresh school.” Dorian also helps Basil realize his artistic potential, as
the portrait of Dorian that Basil paints proves to be his masterpiece.
- Lord Henry
- A nobleman and a close friend of Basil Hallward. Urbane and witty, Lord Henry is perpetually armed and
ready with well-phrased epigrams criticizing the moralism and hypocrisy of Victorian society. His
pleasure-seeking philosophy of “new Hedonism,” which espouses garnering experiences that stimulate the
senses without regard for conventional morality, plays a vital role in Dorian’s development.
- Dorian Gray
- A radiantly handsome, impressionable, and wealthy young gentleman, whose portrait the artist Basil
Hallward paints. Under the influence of Lord Henry Wotton, Dorian becomes extremely concerned with the
transience of his beauty and begins to pursue his own pleasure above all else. He devotes himself to
having as many experiences as possible, whether moral or immoral, elegant or sordid.
- Sybil Jane
- A poor, beautiful, and talented actress with whom Dorian falls in love. Sibyl’s love for Dorian compromises
her ability to act, as her experience of true love in life makes her realize the falseness of affecting
emotions onstage.
