"Don Quixote" is a wood engraving by French artist Gustave Doré, known for his detailed and dramatic illustrations. The engraving, part of a series depicting scenes from Miguel de Cervantes's novel, captures the chaotic energy of a festival, with people engaged in a range of activities, such as dancing, watching performances, and even getting into a brawl. Doré's masterful use of line and shading evokes the vibrant and lively atmosphere of the scene, while simultaneously hinting at the underlying absurdity and folly of the characters. The engraving's dynamic composition and intricate details are characteristic of Doré's work, which often combined realism with a sense of theatricality, making it a popular choice for illustrating classic literature.
