Title: En cheminant ainsi, notre tout neuf aventurier se parlait a lui-même
Period: 1850-1900;
Geographic: Spain; Europe
Description: While Don Quixote sets out on his first sally with Rocinante through the dry and austere landscape of La Mancha, the sky behind him fills with shadows or ghosts of errant knights, maidens, dragons, castles, and giants. The illustration masterfully combines reality (Don Quixote riding Rocinante) and fantasy (adventures, knights, and all other figments of his imagination). Signed by G. Doré (illustrator) and H.-J. Pisan (engraver). Part 1, ch. 2.
