Loosely inspired by the real-life story of Vera Zasulich, this play marks Wildes debut in the theatrical world. Although it premiered in the United Kingdom in 1880 and made its way to New York in 1882, it unfortunately struggled to find an audience and was short-lived in both locales.

Basil Hallward había terminado el retrato. El joven Dorian, al verlo, no pudo más que desear, desde su frívola inocencia, que fuera su imagen la que envejeciera y se corrompiera con el paso de los años mientras él permanecía intacto.

Christianity has tended to focus on right beliefs and right choices as the keys for personal growth.
