EDITORS COMMENTS
In this woodcut print, we see the iconic character Don Quixote engaging in a thought-provoking conversation with unseen forces. Created by Gustave Dore and based on Miguel Cervantes' renowned novel "Don Quixote de la Mancha" this image captures the essence of the story's exploration of conviction and reason. Don Quixote, portrayed as a noble knight, stands tall and resolute as he questions these mysterious forces about their convictions. With his trusty lance in hand and his loyal steed by his side, he embodies both courage and curiosity. The forces remain unseen, leaving us to wonder who or what they represent - perhaps society's norms or even Don Quixote's own inner doubts. The black-and-white engraving adds an air of timelessness to the scene, emphasizing the enduring relevance of Cervantes' masterpiece. Through this powerful visual representation, Stefano Bianchetti skillfully brings together two literary giants from different eras – Cervantes and Dore – creating a harmonious fusion that invites contemplation. As viewers, we are encouraged to reflect on our own convictions and question their foundations. Are they rooted in reality or mere illusions? Do they serve a greater purpose or simply perpetuate societal expectations? Just like Don Quixote himself, we are prompted to challenge conventional wisdom and search for deeper meaning within ourselves. This print serves as a reminder that literature has the power to ignite profound introspection while simultaneously entertaining us with its timeless
