This dramatic black and white illustration, "Don Quixote," depicts a scene from the famous novel by Miguel de Cervantes. It's a powerful depiction of the titular character's journey, set against the backdrop of a moonlit road that stretches towards the horizon. The work is by the celebrated French artist Gustave Doré (1832-1883), who was renowned for his detailed and emotionally charged illustrations of classic literature. Doré's "Don Quixote" illustrations are highly prized for their ability to capture the spirit of Cervantes' work, bringing the characters and their world to life with remarkable detail and expression.
