Don Quixote

Picture
TITLE: Don Quixote
​ARTIST:  Marshall M. Fredericks
DATE: 1988
TYPE: Sculpture
MEDIA: Bronze
 
ABOUT: Cervantes' "Don Quixote de la Mancha" is a masterpiece of world literature.  It is as equally well known and loved today as in 1605 when Cervantes wrote it. 

Cervantes glorified knight-errantry with his parody of the romances of chivalry, Don Quixote and his faithful squire Sancho Panza roamed the Spanish countryside in search of adventures. 
​
Fredericks' original sculpture from 1938 relays the whimsical quality of Don Quixote in his expression, posture, and in his method of modeling. The form is highly stylized and hard-edged.  The surface is smooth and there are few details. The Main Exhibit Gallery displays two versions; this one in bronze and another in nickel-plated bronze.
 
​LOCATION: Saginaw Valley State University, University Center, Michigan
