Análisis de una ilustración de la escena de la vigilia de las armas en Don Quijote de la Mancha

2010 by Belou Quimby bquimby

1863 English translation of Don Quijote de la Mancha is filled with beautiful, highly-detailed engravings by Gustav Doré. These illustrations aid the reader in comprehending the text and clarify the themes of the work through composition, lighting, and visual symbolism. In this presentation, I will analyze one illustration in particular, examining how the formal elements of visual art can greatly enhance the reader’s appreciation of this specific work of literature—and of literature in general.
