EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported into the world of Miguel Cervantes' timeless masterpiece, "Don Quixote de la Mancha". The image depicts a powerful scene where Don Quixote, the chivalrous knight-errant, takes sides for his loyal young valet. With an intense gaze and raised sword, Don Quixote stands ready to defend his companion against an unseen adversary. His determination is evident as he exclaims, "By the sun that enlimes us! I don't know who keeps me from passing my blade through the body!". This quote encapsulates Don Quixote's unwavering loyalty and willingness to fight for justice. The woodcut after Gustave Dore's drawing beautifully captures the essence of this iconic literary moment. The intricate details bring life to each character's expression and posture, conveying their emotions with remarkable clarity. Stefano Bianchetti has expertly preserved this significant scene in Spanish literature through his careful reproduction of the original artwork. As we admire this engraving, we are reminded of Cervantes' genius in creating complex characters like Don Quixote - a symbol of idealism and courage. This print serves as a visual testament to the enduring power of storytelling and its ability to transport us into fantastical worlds filled with adventure and heroism.
