description The true iconography of Don Quixote commences with the title page for Rossett’s translation of 1618. This influenced the first graphic series on the subject, produced by Lagniet around 1650, and likewise the first oil painting, executed by artists belonging to the circle of Le Nain. The advent of Don Quixote to the sphere of Great Art was linked to tapestry-work and the engravings of Coypel. The illustrations realized by Gustave Doré in 1863 still seduce to this day thanks to its richness. In his paintings Daumier gave substance to the tension existing between master and servant. Thanks to him, Don Quixote becomes a theme exploited by some modern artists, from the paintings of Masson created between 1934 and 1937, to Dalí’s illustrations and the abstract sculptures executed by Richier.
