"Don Quixote" is a wood engraving by Gustave Doré, renowned for his dramatic and detailed illustrations. The image depicts a scene from Miguel de Cervantes's novel, where the delusional knight Don Quixote is left hanging from a window by his servant, Sancho Panza. Doré's signature style is evident in the powerful chiaroscuro, creating a sense of suspense and drama. This engraving exemplifies the artist's ability to capture the essence of literature through visual storytelling, appealing to both readers and art enthusiasts. The image resonates with the themes of chivalry, delusion, and the battle between reality and imagination present in the original text.
