Commentary | Don Quixote (talking to Sancho about the laws of knighthood?).
Image of remarkable personal style influenced by some of the main European Art movements during the 1930s, as late Expressionism and Surrealism; the image loses realism to become more expressive, but also oniric, evocative and suggestive (notice don Quixote's shadow, threatening? protector? don Quixote's reality vs. don Quixote's fantasy?). |
