Commentary | Don Quixote mounted on Rocinante and attacking the flock of sheep.
Well-known episode, but this illustration has been resolved with remarkable originality in its style. Good use of woodcut to create effective white and black contrasts and the effect of the dust clouds. Clean drawing and very expressive illustration. |
