The artwork named “DON QUICHOTTE BLEU,” created by Jean Cocteau, belongs to the Expressionism art movement and is categorized under the genre of design. This piece is part of a series titled “Plate Design.”
The artwork prominently features a stylized depiction of Don Quixote, rendered in a distinctive blue color. Executed with what seem to be dynamic, swirling lines, the illustration conveys a sense of movement and energy, capturing the whimsical and adventurous spirit of the iconic literary character. The plate itself serves as the canvas for this design, with Cocteau’s signature and the date “1958” inscribed on the lower right side, adding a personal touch to the piece. The minimalist background allows the intricate line work to stand out, providing an elegant and expressive visual experience.
