Oscar Wilde Posing For The Camera In 1882

This is a photo of the man who wrote the brilliant “The Portrait Of Dorian Gray.” In 1882, Oscar Wilde crossed the point and explored different parts of the United States. Around that time, he gave 150 lectures and spoke to 200,000 people. He once visited a silver mine in Colorado. He narrated, “I dined with the men down there. They were great, strong, well-formed men, of graceful attitude and free motion. Poems everyone one of them. A complete democracy underground. I find people less rough and coarse in such places. There is no chance for roughness. The revolver is their book of etiquette.”
