This is a vintage pair of hand-carved wooden literary sculptures depicting Miguel de Cervantes’ iconic Spanish characters, Don Quixote and Sancho Panza. The tall, angular figure on the right captures the gaunt, idealistic knight errant Don Quixote standing proudly in carved armor with a stern expression, while the shorter, stout figure on the left portrays his loyal, practical squire Sancho Panza with his hands clasped characteristically behind his back. Both mid-century folk-art figurines are meticulously carved from a single piece of rich warm-toned timber, showcasing prominent chisel marks and resting on heavy, dark-stained rectangular wooden block bases. Dimensions: 21cm (h) x 26cm (h)
