EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the epic battle between Don Quixote and the Knight of Mirrors, a pivotal moment in Miguel de Cervantes' timeless novel "El Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quijote de la Mancha." The intricate detail of the four characters, including the valiant Don Quixote himself, is brought to life in this tapestry by Charles Joseph Natoire.
The intensity of the confrontation is palpable as Don Quixote bravely faces his adversary, embodying his unwavering courage and chivalry. The Knight of Mirrors looms menacingly in the background, reflecting back at our hero with a sense of foreboding.
The craftsmanship of this piece is truly remarkable, with wool and silk intricately woven to create a masterpiece that now resides in the Musee des Tapisseries in Aix-en-Provence. The sheer size of the tapestry (359x258cm) allows for every minute detail to be appreciated, from the expressions on each character's face to their elaborate armor and weaponry.
As viewers gaze upon this scene, they are transported into Cervantes' world of adventure and imagination. It serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of Don Quixote and his quest for honor and glory against all odds.
