John Gray, inspiration for Dorian (?)
The novel is currently being adapted as a stage production in London, choreographed by Matthew Bourne, leading to this feature article in The Guardian about John Gray, the supposed real-life Dorian. It's a great look at John Gray's life, although I've always been sceptical as to how much inspiration he gave Wilde beyond his last name. The article doesn't include a picture of John Gray, so here's the first result I got from Google, and you can judge his handsomeness for yourself.
