EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts Juan Moreno Tejada's (1739-1805) representation of the renowned Spanish author Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (1547-1616) in the printer's workshop. Moreno Tejada, a prolific Spanish painter and engraver, captured the essence of Cervantes in this historical image, which showcases the writer in deep concentration as he oversees the printing process of his masterpiece, 'Don Quixote.' The intricate details of the print reveal the vibrant atmosphere of the printer's studio, with workers busy at their tasks, ink pots and printing presses in the background, and the warm glow of natural light filtering in through the windows. Cervantes, dressed in the attire of a nobleman, sits at a table covered in manuscripts and books, his quill pen in hand, as he meticulously checks each page before it goes to press. His intense gaze and furrowed brow convey the dedication and passion he brought to his writing. Moreno Tejada's representation of Cervantes in the printer's workshop is a testament to the artist's skill and the importance of the printing press in the dissemination of literature during the 18th century. This image provides a unique glimpse into the world of Spanish literature and the creative process behind the production of some of the most influential works in Western literature, including 'Don Quixote' and 'La Gitanilla.' Moreno Tejada's print is a valuable historical artifact that offers insights into the life of Cervantes and the role of the printer in the literary world of the time. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of literature, Spanish art, or the printing press.
