Description:

This is my painting of one of my favorite playwrights Oscar Wilde (1854-1900). He was famous for his book, "The Picture of Dorian Gray" in which a beautiful man sits for a portrait and then mourns the fact that he will never be as young and beautiful as he is in his portrait. He then sells his soul so that he will always remain young and the picture will age. I have portrayed Oscar Wilde sitting in front of the portrait of Dorian Gray. I painted the portrait behind him to also symbolize Bosie Douglas, lover of Oscar Wilde who was the eventual downfall of Wilde's life. Oscar Wilde was sent to prison for 2 years of hard labor for being found out a homosexual. He had wealth, fame, and a beautiful wife and children, and he lost it all because of being homosexual. His wife Constance Wilde and his son Cyril are in an antique frame on his lapel. This, to date, has been my favorite painting to create!
