Don Quixote by Doré

Hello

I like the tangible art, from paintings, drawings, prints and sculptures. Thanks to the revival we like many works of art from Italy, artists such as Leonardo Da Vinci, Raphael, Michelangelo and many more all of them marked the history of art to this day.

An artist called my attention, not only his quality but the reason for his works, he is Paul Gustave Doré Was a French artist, engraver, illustrator and sculptor. Primarily Worked with Doré wood engraving and steel engraving of the nineteenth century.

Since he was a gifted artist of great talent, he devoted his life to play in a famous design book like the Bible, The Divine Comedy or Don Quixote. Just the pictures that made this great book by Miguel de Cervantes I really like, and you can see posted is what I like.

The amount of detail that has this print show the quality of Gustave Doré and how an illustration can interpret many signs the mind of the mad Don Quixote. In the illustration are knights riding horses, we know that Don Quixote read so many novels of this type, as he is his brain dried up, that is reflected in the pile of books that are lying on the ground.

There are many other illustrations of this renowned artist, could be published on the blog each and they are really amazing.

Well ... Goodbye!
