Bold abbreviated lines that make up the pieces are prominent on a plain white background. The characters here are distorted and dramatic. The small, round Sancho Panza looks up at the tall, thin Don Quixote, who is looking ahead. Picasso's depiction of these literary characters expresses humor and painterly virtuosity and has become their iconic depiction.
