Details

Lance and shield at the ready, Don Quixote de la Mancha prepares to do battle with windmills. Armando Ramírez depicts the beloved character from Miguel de Cervantes' 17th century novel, sculpting the idealistic knight and his horse from recycled metal and automobile parts. Sheet metal scraps, a spark plug, washers, screws and wire all find a new life in this sculpture.

The artisan does not give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.
