About the Item

"Don Quixote" Hand made silk embroidered tapestry in Art Deco style after famous artist Michael Verkholantzev, the academician of painting. His original and licenced art was used to make one of kind masterpiece as wall tapestry. More than 12 months of work for the Master level craftsmen. It is difficult to say something new about Don Quixote. Each artist interpreted this image according to the aesthetics of his time, and no one tried to plunge into the atmosphere of Spanish and, of course, Flemish Mannerism, although Cervantes' satire is Mannerist. Today this style has been forgotten. They call for a great talent of the artist, his complete rethinking of what is going on and creation of allegorical images. The ultimate illustration of Don Quixote is presented in the form of a grotesque. The composition has nothing to do with the plot of Cervantes' novel. In the modern reading, the eternal flow of water as part of the philosophy of this world. This handcrafted artwork has been meticulously embroidered, capturing the essence of Don Quixote's adventurous spirit and romantic idealism. The rich colors and intricate stitches bring the famous character to life, making it a truly unique and eye-catching addition to any art collection. This beautiful piece comes framed, ready to be displayed and admired in a home or art gallery. Whether you are a fan of literature or appreciate fine embroidery art, the "Don Quixote" Fine Embroidery Art is sure to make a statement and spark conversations. The water wheel spins the blades of the mill, as if grinding time, forcing us to reflect on its transience. In the eternal pursuit of their goals, people do not have time to think about spirituality, no time to contemplate the world, and therefore to slow down a little the running of time. Contemplation suspends all life processes and prolongs life.
