EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting scene of "Sancho and the Duchess". Created by John Gilbert in 1870, this engraving beautifully captures a moment from Miguel de Cervantes' iconic Spanish literature masterpiece, Don Quixote. The image is part of a private collection and was featured in an adaptation of the novel for young readers by M Jones. In this illustration, we witness Sancho Panza, faithful squire to Don Quixote, engaging with the Duchess. As one of Cervantes' most beloved characters, Sancho's wit and charm are on full display as he converses with elegance befitting his noble surroundings. The Duchess herself exudes grace and sophistication as she engages in conversation with her trusted companion. The intricate details captured by Sir John Gilbert transport us back to the literary world created by Cervantes centuries ago. This image serves as a reminder of the enduring power of literature to transcend time and captivate generations across cultures. As we admire this remarkable piece, it is impossible not to appreciate both the artistry behind its creation and its significance within Spanish literature. It stands as a testament to Miguel de Cervantes' genius while showcasing how his characters continue to inspire artists even today.
