Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

Französische Grafik 1845–1855, c. 1855

The image shows a man in a three-quarter view, focusing on his upper body. He appears to be standing or possibly leaning slightly, with his arms supporting his stance. The man has strong facial features, including prominent cheekbones, a mustache, and a receding hairline. He is wearing a textured jacket over a white shirt. In his left hand, he holds a scroll with the word "DON QUIJOTE" on it, and his right hand is near a sword hilt. In the background, there is an ethereal figure reaching towards the sky, surrounded by celestial motifs.
