Cervantes Saavedra, Miguel de.
EL INGENIOSO HIDALGO DON QUIJOTE DE LA MANCHA.
1947 Edicion IV Centenario adorna con 356 grabados de GUSTAVO DORE enteramente comentada por CLEMENCIN y prececida de un estudio critico de LUIS ASTRANA MARIN mas un indice resumen de los illustadores y comentadores del QUIJOTE por JUSTO GARCIA MORALES. 4 volumes. Madrid: Ediciones Castilla, S.A., [1957]. Edicion especial de 300 ejemplares en papel del hilo. A beautiful limited edition of Don Quixote in Spanish. First published in 1605, the work was intended by Cervantes (1547-1616) to satirize chivalric ideals, but it immediately caught the fancy of readers who continue to view it as an enduring example of the persistence of idealism against all odds. Cervantes repeatedly promised a sequel to the work but it never appeared. Publisher's catalog laid in. Full vellum binding with dark red spine labels, red silk ribbon markers, gilt top edges, and gilt stamped laurel-leaf borders to the spine and boards. Red vignettes of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza are printed on the front and rear boards. Barring some mild wear to the spine labels, this is a uniformly very good set.
