The story begins in the art
studio of Basil Hallward, who is discussing a current painting with his witty and amoral friend
Lord Henry Wotton. Henry thinks that the painting, a portrait of an extraordinarily
beautiful young man, should be displayed, but Basil disagrees, fearing that his
obsession with the portrait's subject, Dorian Gray, can be seen in the work. Dorian then arrives, and he is fascinated as Henry explains his belief that one should
live life to the fullest by indulging one's impulses. Henry also points out that beauty and youth are fleeting, and Dorian declares that he would give his soul if the portrait were to grow old and wrinkled while he remained young and handsome.
Basil gives the painting to Dorian.
