EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting print depicts the Palace of the Dukes in Pedrola, a temporary residence of the legendary character Don Quixote, as penned by the inimitable Miguel de Cervantes in his seminal work, "Don Quixote of La Mancha." The image, created through the meticulous art of engraving by Paris, transports us back to the 16th and 17th centuries, inviting us to explore the world of Alonso Quijano, the humble hidalgo who dared to dream of chivalric adventures. The Palace of the Dukes, a magnificent mansion adorned with an intricately designed facade, stands proudly against a backdrop of lush greenery. The exterior, with its arches, balconies, and ornate windows, exudes an air of grandeur and nobility, fitting for the errant knight's fantastical journey. The garden, teeming with vibrant flowers and verdant foliage, adds to the idyllic setting, further emphasizing the juxtaposition between the real and the imagined. Don Quixote, the knight errant, is a contemporary creation of Cervantes, born out of the author's keen insight into the human condition. His character, a man of noble intentions but clouded judgment, captivated the world with his unwavering commitment to chivalry and his unyielding spirit. This print, a beautiful testament to the power of literature, invites us to delve deeper into the adventures of Don Quixote, and to appreciate the enduring legacy of Miguel de Cervantes.
