EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour lithograph, titled "Robinson Crusoe: A Chinese Don Quixote" transports us into the realm of literary imagination. Created by Joseph Finnemore in the early 20th century, this illustration is part of an unidentified edition of Daniel Defoe's iconic novel, Robinson Crusoe. In this artwork, we witness a fusion of cultures as the story takes on a distinctly Chinese twist. The protagonist, Robinson Crusoe, assumes the role of Don Quixote from Miguel de Cervantes' renowned work. This unexpected combination breathes new life into both tales and invites us to explore their shared themes and adventures. The vibrant colours used in this lithograph add depth and richness to the scene. They evoke a sense of wonder and intrigue as we delve into the world created by these two extraordinary writers. The intricate details capture our attention, allowing us to immerse ourselves in this fantastical narrative. Finnemore's skillful interpretation highlights not only the fictional character but also his transformation from an ordinary man to an extraordinary figure who embarks on daring escapades against formidable odds. Through this visual representation, we are reminded of the power that literature holds in shaping our perception and understanding of different cultures. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder's private collection, it serves as a testament to the enduring legacy left behind by great writers like Defoe and Cervantes. It reminds us that stories have no boundaries or limitations; they can transcend time and place while
