The Picture of Dorian Grey

The Picture of Dorian Grey is a 1915 Russian silent drama film based on Oscar Wilde's 1890 novel of the same title. Directed by Vsevolod Meyerhold and Mikhail Doronin, with art direction by Vladimir Yegorov, this screen adaptation should not be confused with another film also released in 1915, one produced by the Thanhouser Company in the United States and starring actor Harris Gordon. A print of Thanhouser's version is preserved in the Library of Congress, and digitized portions of that motion picture are available on YouTube and on other streaming services. No footage, however, from this Russian release is listed among the holdings of major film repositories around the world, so it is currently presumed to be lost.
