EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from the annals of literary history, Don Quixote, the famed knight-errant created by Miguel de Cervantes, is finally brought to his knees by his loyal friend and squire, Sancho Panza, portrayed here as Sanson Carasco. The scene, taken from the second part of Cervantes' groundbreaking novel published in 1605, depicts the moment of truth when Quixote's delusional belief in chivalry and knighthood is shattered. Quixote, dressed in his knightly attire, is shown with a determined look on his face as he clutches his lance, ready for battle. His opponent, Carasco, stands before him with a stern expression, his arms raised in a defensive stance. The battle between these two friends had been instigated by Quixote's misguided belief that Carasco was an enemy knight. The moment of resolution comes as Carasco, with a mixture of concern and frustration, manages to subdue his friend. Quixote, realizing the futility of his actions, bows his head in submission. Carasco, in turn, makes Quixote swear not to take up arms again for a year, in an attempt to help him regain his sanity and return to his peaceful, rural life. This powerful image, taken from the rich tapestry of Spanish literature, continues to resonate with readers and scholars alike, offering insights into the complexities of friendship, madness, and the human condition. The iconic characters of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, whose adventures have been immortalized in over 150 editions and countless adaptations, remain a testament to the enduring power of storytelling.
