in stabbing the painting, dorian has broken the curse — he turns into a dead wrinkly and disfigured old man, stabbed in the heart (the symbol of love btw). that’s who he really should look like. great ending. #dg20 #dgsymbol #dgart4art

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

woah! so dorian decides to stab at the painting with the exact same knife as he killed basil. coincidence? absolutely not. #dg20 #dgsymbol

when dorian looks at the painting hoping for a positive change, all he sees is “there was a look of cunning, and... the curved wrinkle of the hypocrite.” dorian doesn’t want to be better for the sake of being better, but for himself and his well being. making him a hypocrite.

LH quoting “What does it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own soul” is very representative of Dorian. He has seemingly gained the whole world — but has lost the innocence and beauty of his soul, as represented in the painting. #dg19 #dgsymbol #dgart4art

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

it’s no surprise that LH doesn’t believe that dorian is capable of such a crime as murder. this represents that dorian could literally “get away with murder” just based on the look of his face. interesting... #dgsymbol #dg19

dorian claims to lord henry that he now wants to reform and be a better person. is he saying this because he actually is repenting or just out of fear? #dg19 #dgsymbol

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

dorian dreams of being safe from his crimes. do you think that he can break free from the picture and it’s curse? #dg18

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

Dorian says that he wish he knew how to love. He confirms that he only cares about himself and what he does or the people he affects. #dg18

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

This is some freaky stuff. Somehow Dorian knew that they shouldn’t shoot at the hare, but they do and kill none other than James Vane. Is this a result of the curse? Does it eliminate threats to Dorian? #dg18

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

Dorian sees the face of James Vane when he passes out. Will Vane finally keep his promise and kill Dorian? #dg17

Can we appreciate this Duchess though? Calling Dorian out on his life of only desiring pleasure and not love. We stan a confident queen. #dgs

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

Lord Henry still is as pretentious as he was in the beginning, as he worries about the beauty in the names of things rather than what they are. #dgcharacter #dg17

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

The opium den is representation of everything ugly — yet Dorian is running towards it. That’s a big change from the beginning, where Dorian resented any type of ugliness. #dg16 #dgsymbol

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

I guess James kept his promise to kill “Prince Charming.” Too bad his face isn’t as aged eighteen years. #dg16

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

Dorian is now turning to drugs??? Daaaaaaang. He’s really committing to this downwards spiral. #dg16

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

Blood dropping on the painting is the addition of the sin or Basil’s murder on the painting. #dg14 #dgsymbol

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

Alan is a representation of Dorian’s life filled with sin. Dorian resembles Lord Henry now, as someone who brings sin and evil to others’ lives. #dg14 #dgsymbol

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

also, in the beginning, basil says he doesn’t want to be seen in his art... but he keeps showing up in dorian’s sketches... #dg14 #dgart4art

[audrey 💛 @audreyP4b19]

It’s ironic how Dorian now sketches to distract him from the portrait and Basil. #dgart4art #dg14
