Answer

Alfred Douglas and Oscar Wilde lived together in Naples after Wilde's release. Wilde was released from prison in 1897 after serving two years for gross indecency. He and Douglas traveled to Naples, where they lived together for several months. Wilde was still struggling with the aftermath of his trial and imprisonment, and Douglas was often critical of him. The two eventually drifted apart, and Wilde returned to England in 1898.
