"Don Quixote and the Dead Mule after 1864" is a lithograph by the French artist Honoré Daumier, a prolific printmaker, caricaturist, painter, and sculptor. Daumier is renowned for his social and political commentary, which he delivered through his works with wit and satire. This particular lithograph is part of Daumier's extensive body of work that explores the themes and characters from Miguel de Cervantes's seminal novel "Don Quixote."

Created after 1864, the lithograph depicts a scene inspired by the adventures of the delusional knight-errant Don Quixote and his loyal squire, Sancho Panza. Daumier's interpretation of the Cervantes tale is notable for its expressive lines and the artist's ability to capture the essence of the characters and their quixotic endeavors. The image of Don Quixote and the dead mule is likely a satirical take on the misadventures and the often-tragicomic outcomes of the knight's quests.

Daumier's work on Don Quixote is significant as it reflects the artist's interest in social justice and his empathy for human folly and resilience. The lithograph is a testament to Daumier's mastery of the medium and his influence on the development of modern caricature. His depictions of Don Quixote often serve to mirror the absurdities and the struggles of the human condition, themes that were central to Daumier's artistic oeuvre.

As a part of Daumier's broader work on Don Quixote, "Don Quixote and the Dead Mule after 1864" contributes to the understanding of the artist's perspective on 19th-century French society, as well as his enduring impact on the visual arts. Daumier's lithographs, including this piece, continue to be studied and appreciated for their artistic merit and cultural significance.
