"Le Portrait de Dorian Gray" a été rédigé en 1890, puis complété en 1891. Ce roman fantastique est à la fois un manifeste esthétique et un récit moral. Bien qu'Oscar Wilde y développe l'idée d'un art dégagé de toute éthique, le jeune Dorian Gray va faire face à sa conscience morale à travers son portrait qui porte à sa place les traces de sa perversité et la décadence que le temps inflige aux esprits les plus purs.

De cette peur primitive et essentielle qu'il éprouve, va émaner en lui une nouvelle conscience du monde et de lui-même. La lucidité va surgir de la douleur et entraîner avec elle l'abandon des vanités humaines.
