À propos du tableau
The subject of this painting has been taken from the novel Don Quixote, 1605 by the Spanish writer Miguel de Cervantes. This two-part novel details the mock chivalric adventures of the self-declared knight errant and his side-kick Sancho Panza. The novel was popular throughout the nineetnth century in Britain, and was reprinted in several editions. The artist John Gilbert specialised in Quixotic subjects and the collector Henry Spencer Ashbee assembled a large number of works inspired by the novel. This painting shows the moment (in Part 1, Book 1, Chapter 7) when Don Quixote recruits Sancho Panza as his companion.
