This woodcut, "Don Quixote," by Gustave Doré depicts a scene from the classic novel by Miguel de Cervantes. The image portrays Don Quixote, a chivalrous knight, attending to Sancho Panza, his loyal squire. The dramatic use of light and shadow emphasizes the plight of Sancho, who is visibly suffering from the effects of a poorly concocted remedy. This illustration, created during Doré's prolific career in the 19th century, is a testament to his skill in capturing the essence of literary works through his detailed and expressive art. The scene reflects the humorous and poignant nature of the novel, showcasing the enduring impact of the story on art and popular culture.
