Head of Don Quixote
Description
Composition in black, red ochre and white tones. Quick sketch lines. Composition representing the lower half of the support, half of Don Quixote's body and the upper half, a sketch of a figure's face. Don Quixote is facing forward, with a very long face with suggested facial features. His right arm is raised and bent, suggesting that he is holding his sword up high. Quick lines define the knight's bust. In the upper half of the support, to the left of the center, a sketch of a figure facing forward, showing closed eyes, nose and mouth, with half-open lips. Part of the right face is not defined.
