Over time, Dorian becomes increasingly obsessed with his own appearance and begins to lead a life of excess and immorality, indulging in every whim and desire without consequence. However, as the portrait in his attic slowly takes on a more grotesque appearance, Dorian becomes haunted by the true reflection of his soul and the consequences of his actions. "The Picture of Dorian Gray" is a dark and cautionary tale that explores the themes of vanity, morality, and the corruption of the soul, offering a critique of the excesses of late Victorian society
