EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic scene from Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra's masterpiece, Don Quixote. Illustrated by Gustave Dore in 1905 for Die Gartenlaube, it depicts the valiant knight-errant, Don Quixote, engaging in a fierce battle against a herd of sheep. In this comical yet poignant moment, Don Quixote mistakes the peaceful flock for two opposing armies and charges fearlessly into combat. Clad in his armor and wielding his lance with determination, he embodies the spirit of chivalry and honor that defines his character. The artwork beautifully showcases Dore's mastery as an engraver and artist. His attention to detail brings every element to life - from the intricate armor adorning Don Quixote to the expressions on both man and beast caught up in this absurd confrontation. Through this image, we are reminded of Cervantes' timeless exploration of human nature and our propensity to chase illusions. It serves as a visual representation of how our perceptions can often deceive us if we allow ourselves to be consumed by fantasies. Don Quixote fighting the herd of sheep is not just a humorous encounter but also symbolizes the clash between reality and imagination that lies at the heart of Cervantes' novel. This historical piece continues to captivate viewers with its artistic brilliance while paying homage to one of literature's most beloved characters.
