EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving, we are transported back to the 16th century as we witness the iconic duo of Don Quichotte and Sancho Panca come to life. Created by the talented artist Honore Daumier in 1878, this print beautifully captures the essence of Miguel de Cervantes' timeless literary masterpiece. The image showcases Don Quichotte, a knight filled with madness and idealism, mounted on his trusty steed alongside his loyal servant Sancho Panca. The intricate details in their attire and expressions bring these fictional characters to life, evoking a sense of adventure and imagination. Daumier's artistic prowess shines through in this engraving, showcasing his mastery of capturing human emotions and creating depth within each stroke. As we gaze upon this artwork, it is impossible not to be drawn into the world created by Cervantes' words. This photograph was taken at an exhibition held at Galerie Durand-Ruel in 1878 where Daumier's work was celebrated. It serves as a testament to both the enduring legacy of Cervantes' novel and Daumier's contribution to French art. Through this print, Jaime Abecasis has preserved a moment frozen in time - one that encapsulates the spirit of adventure, friendship, and madness that defines Don Quixote's journey. It serves as a reminder of literature's power to transcend time and space while honoring two great artists who have left an indelible mark on our cultural heritage.
