The Picture of Dorian Gray

by Oscar Wilde

This playlist captures the haunting allure, decadence, and moral complexity of Oscar Wilde's "The Picture of Dorian Gray." The instrumental selections evoke the novel's Victorian setting and the eerie supernatural pact, while the vocal tracks reflect Dorian's vanity, internal conflict, and the seductive yet corrupting influence of Lord Henry.
