Resumen
This paper focuses on the artistic references that appear in the stage directions of An Ideal Husband. Oscar Wilde stated in his prose writings that an artistic form could not be explained using anything else but another artistic form. In accordance with this, he expresses in An Ideal Husband the characters's physical aspects as well as their conflicts through the artistic features of different painters, sculptoric examples, etc. Wilde achieves a perfect characterization through his artistic knowledge of various art manifestations.
