Oscars Wilde rightly consider the sign of European modernism. He was born in 1854 in the family of a successful British doctor and since childhood was immersed in an exquisite artistic atmosphere that his mother created in the family. Already in those years, young Oscar was called a child prospect. Having weeded from the Irish pronunciation in Oxford, he began to surround his life with stories and legends, in which fiction was sometimes difficult to distinguish from the truth. In London, Wilde quickly became a star of aristocratic salons. Everything in this person was unusual - an outfit of the artist, impeccable diction, wit, paradoxical judgments. The text of his famous novel, which caused a wave of criticism immediately after publication, is given in this edition completely, without bills, in the rare translation of the brother of the famous philosopher - Polyglot Sergey Alexandrovich Berdyaev. He managed to surprisingly accurately convey the decadent atmosphere of this mystical work, which became a kind of manifesto of aesthetics. He is also a translator of Wilde"s letters in defense of Dorian Gray.
Fernan Simeon (1884-1928)-French artist, engraver and illustrator who studied at the Paris School of Decorative Arts. The drawings for the “portrait of Dorian Gray” are a kind of exception in his work, since he illustrated the works of only French writers.
