EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Don Quixote, Sancho and the country girls" takes us on a visual journey into the world of Miguel de Cervantes' iconic novel. Created by John Gilbert in the late 19th century, this artwork beautifully captures a scene from Don Quixote adapted for young readers. In this illustration, we see the legendary knight-errant Don Quixote accompanied by his loyal squire Sancho Panza amidst a group of charming country girls. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life the rustic setting as well as the characters' expressions and gestures. As we gaze at this image, we are reminded of Cervantes' timeless tale that explores themes of chivalry, imagination, and madness. It is fascinating to witness how Sir John Gilbert's artistic interpretation adds another layer to our understanding of these beloved literary figures. The inclusion of female writers in the caption highlights their significant contribution to literature during that era. This print not only celebrates Cervantes as an esteemed writer but also acknowledges other talented authors who have made their mark in Spanish literature. Displayed proudly in a private collection, this chromolitho print serves as a testament to both historical artistry and enduring literary masterpieces like Don Quixote.
