EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by Gustave Dore, we are transported into the world of Miguel de Cervantes' iconic novel, Don Quixote. The image depicts a pivotal moment in the story when our beloved protagonist stumbles upon the rough draft of a sonnet. As we gaze at the print, we can almost hear Don Quixote's voice resonating through the centuries as he reads aloud from this newfound treasure. With his wild imagination and unwavering determination to be a knight-errant, it is no surprise that even a simple sonnet holds such fascination for him. Dore's intricate attention to detail brings every element of this scene to life. From the delicate strokes that form each letter on the page to Don Quixote's intense expression as he absorbs every word, we are drawn into his world of chivalry and honor. This engraving not only captures an important moment in literature but also showcases Dore's incredible talent as an artist. His ability to convey emotion through his work is evident here, making us feel as though we too have stumbled upon this precious piece of poetry alongside Don Quixote. As we admire this print, let us remember the power that literature holds - its ability to transport us across time and space and ignite our imaginations with just a few words on a page.
