I recently ran into a blog that featured some amazing book illustrations for Don Quixote. Please check out the Brain Pickings Blog for more on the Rojas illustrations. I decided to poke around the web for other works based on Spain’s greatest literary character and found several beautiful and diverse interpretations – some of these are as well-known as the book itself.

Don Quixote
Riera Rojas, 1969
Dali does Quixote
Salvador Dalí, 1960
visions-of-quixote
Octavio Ocampo, 1989
picasso don quixote
Pablo Picasso, 1955
Don_Quijote_and_Sancho_Panza
Gustave Doré, 1863

Honoré Daumier, 1868
