Don Quixote 

This intricate wood engraving by Gustave Doré, a prominent French artist known for his detailed illustrations, portrays scenes from Miguel de Cervantes' novel *Don Quixote*. The upper scene depicts Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, their mounts tethered, drifting away in a boat, a whimsical touch referencing the novel's blend of reality and fantasy. The lower scene shows the pair dramatically falling as they dismount before an aristocratic huntress, a testament to Doré's ability to capture the novel's humor and absurdity. Doré’s masterful use of linework creates a sense of movement and depth, capturing the dynamism of the characters and their interactions with their surroundings.
