Title
A name given to the resource
Dorian Gray's Schoolroom (Grosvenor Apartment, London)
Subject
The topic of the resource
This is one of the more fascinating spaces in the novel. Dorian's old school room was originally set in place by his grandfather, and its function changes from "play-room" to a "study" in the boy's youth according to the text (Wilde 117). I add that schoolroom becomes an area for Dorian to further conceal his sexuality, a separate space from the rest of the home with a decidedly antiquated decor. This is where Dorian locks away his picture and where he kills Basil Hallward.

Title
A name given to the resource
Flemish tapestry
Description
An account of the resource
This piece shows an image of a faded king and queen playing chess in a garden, as hawkers go by with birds on their wrists (Wilde 118). Again, this attic piece reinforces a Renaissance or Gothic image in Dorian's apartment.
----
This image is a loose interpretation of a tapestry like Dorian's. The Met describes the late 16th-century wool and silk tapestry as depicting hunters in a landscape. The tapestry is done " In a style referred to by Flemish weavers at the time as 'English fashion,' it was intended to hang between the cornice and the dado of a wood-paneled room." (Anonymous|Hunters in a Landscape| British, probably london|The Met)
