EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of Gustave Dore's engraving, "Here fell my happiness, never to rise again" transports viewers into the emotional depths of Miguel de Cervantes' iconic novel, Don Quixote. The image captures a pivotal moment in the story where the protagonist's joy and contentment are shattered forever. Dore's intricate artwork beautifully conveys the profound sense of loss and despair experienced by Don Quixote. The composition is filled with symbolism, evoking a range of emotions within the viewer. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we cannot help but be drawn into the tragic narrative that unfolds before us. The artist's meticulous attention to detail and masterful use of light and shadow create a haunting atmosphere that lingers long after our eyes have left the print. We can almost feel Don Quixote's heartbreak as his once vibrant world crumbles around him. Through this powerful visual representation, Dore reminds us of the fragility of happiness and how easily it can slip away from our grasp. It serves as a poignant reminder to cherish every moment of joy in our own lives. This print not only showcases Dore's exceptional talent but also pays homage to Cervantes' enduring literary masterpiece. It serves as a testament to both artists' ability to capture complex human emotions through their respective mediums - words and images. Whether one is familiar with Don Quixote or not, this striking engraving invites contemplation on themes such as loss, resilience, and ultimately finding meaning in life despite adversity.
