EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful moment from Miguel Cervantes' timeless masterpiece, "Don Quixote de la Mancha". The woodcut after drawing by Gustave Dore depicts the iconic scene where Don Quixote mistakes windmills for giants and charges at them with his lance. In this particular image, we witness Sancho Panza, Don Quixote's loyal squire, looking on in both concern and awe as his master engages in this delusional battle. The intensity of the assault is palpable as the windmills stand tall against the backdrop of a vast Spanish landscape. The artist skillfully portrays the sheer determination etched on Don Quixote's face, while Sancho's expression reveals a mix of worry and admiration for his eccentric companion. The title "After the assault gives the windmills - 'Misericorde!'" adds an additional layer of emotion to this already evocative artwork. It speaks to Don Quixote's unwavering quest for chivalry and justice, even in the face of ridicule or misunderstanding. Stefano Bianchetti beautifully captures this pivotal moment in literature that has resonated with readers throughout centuries. This print serves as a reminder of Cervantes' genius storytelling and Gustave Dore's exceptional artistic talent. It invites us to reflect on themes such as imagination, bravery, and our own perceptions of reality.
