EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Gustave Dore depicts a poignant moment from Miguel de Cervantes' iconic novel, Don Quixote. The scene portrays Zoraida, a character in the story, hiding her face to avoid seeing her own father. Dore's intricate and detailed artwork brings this emotional moment to life. The image showcases the artist's mastery of capturing human emotions through his brushstrokes. Zoraida's anguish is palpable as she shields herself from the sight of her father, perhaps due to shame or fear. Her hidden face adds an air of mystery and intrigue to the composition. Dore's illustration serves as a testament to his skill as both a painter and an interpreter of literature. Through his artistry, he transports viewers into the world of Don Quixote, allowing them to witness intimate moments like this one. This print is part of a private collection and has been digitally cleaned for optimal reproduction at large sizes if desired. It exemplifies Dore's contribution to 19th-century art and French culture while paying homage to Cervantes' timeless work. Whether you are an admirer of classic literature or simply appreciate fine art, this engraving offers a glimpse into two worlds: that of Cervantes' literary genius and Dore's artistic brilliance.
