Only his portrait, hidden to the world, bears the marks of his actions, and as his soul grows ever more wasted and corrupted, devastating consequences lie in wait. His wish is granted, and over the ensuing years, Dorian indulges in every kind of vice and pleasure, never ageing nor disfiguring.
Afraid that his youth and looks will waste away, Dorian expresses a wish that his portrait, and not he, will age and fade over time. When Basil Hallward paints the portrait of young, handsome Dorian Gray, he falls prey to his dazzling beauty. The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it.
