EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment from Miguel Cervantes' renowned novel, "Don Quixote de la Mancha". The woodcut, based on a drawing by Gustave Dore, depicts the wounded Don Quixote lying in bed. The image evokes a sense of sadness and fatigue as we witness the toll that his adventurous spirit has taken on him. Don Quixote's injuries are visible, reminding us of the physical consequences of his imaginary quests. Surrounded by furniture and furnishings that reflect an era long gone, this scene transports us to 17th century Spain. The attention to detail in the engraving adds depth and authenticity to this portrayal of one of literature's most beloved characters. Miguel Cervantes, a literary genius of his time, created an enduring legacy through his masterpiece. This print serves as a testament to both Cervantes' skill as a writer and Dore's talent as an engraver. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the power that literature holds in capturing human emotions and experiences. It is through works like "Don Quixote" that we can explore themes such as adventure, imagination, and even vulnerability. This print is not just a piece of art; it is a window into another world - one filled with literary wonders waiting to be discovered.
