Basil Hallward
Basil is an extraordinary painter with a kind nature that even Lord Henry can not taint. He falls in love with a stunning beauty name Dorian Gray, who captures his heart, mind, and soul. As his love for Dorian rapidly escalate, his views on art shift as well. The portrait he paints comes out as a complete replica of Dorian, almost like it is Dorian's reflection. Basil wishes for Dorian to be kept pure and seeks to protect Dorian from Lord Henry's corrupted ways. His love is so passionate for Dorian that even after their friendship dissolves, he is still deeply concerned about Dorian's welfare. His devotion towards Dorian is never appreciated, but that does not bother him. His concerns lie on the well-being and purity of Dorian even though he knows he is too late.
