Artwork description:

The clever and valiant knight Don Quixote de la Mancha is indeed one of the most famous tragicomic novel characters. The Spanish Renaissance novelist Miguel Cervantes managed to create a character four centuries ago who lives on to this day.
The famous fight of Don Quixote with windmills has become a kind of eternal phraseology, which is used to denote such an activity that is doomed to failure from the very beginning, or a futile struggle against an invincible enemy.
The sculpture is intended not only for lovers of Don Quixote stories, but for all those who have a tendency to rush headlong into useless matters.

Materials used:

bronze and granit
