artist who paints a picture of him. Thanks to the artist, called Basil Hallward, Dorian meets with Lord Henry. Lord Henry tells him, that appearance and amusements are important in life and you shouldn't take anything seriously. Doria made a wish that he could be young forever like the picture of him. Dorian discovers that he's staying young and the picture of him is getting older. Thanks to aging picture and influence of Lord Herny, he's going to live vicious life. Lord Henry just wants to play with peolple and is interested in psychology, but in my point of view he isn't bad and he didn't now that he makes Dorian a bad man. The book contains lots of vicious side of life and how people don't realize what they are doing and the life isn't just a play, like Lord Henry told to Dorian. You have to be responcible. The story is based little bit on the author's life. I like this book because of the author
