"Éste que veis aquí, de rostro aguileño, de cabello castaño, frente lisa y desembarazada, de alegres ojos y de nariz corva, aunque bien proporcionada; las barbas de plata, que no ha veinte años que fueron de oro, los bigotes grandes, la boca pequeña, los dientes ni menudos ni crecidos, porque no tiene sino seis, y ésos mal acondicionados y peor puestos, porque no tienen correspondencia los unos con los otros; el cuerpo entre dos extremos, ni grande ni pequeño; la colour viva, antes blanca que morena; algo cargado de espaldas, y no muy ligero de pies. Éste digo, que es el rostro del autor de La Galatea y de Don Quijote de la Mancha, u del que hizo el Viaje del Parnaso, a imitación del de César Caporal Perusino, y otras obras que andan por ahí descarriadas, y quizás sin el nombre de su dueño. Llámase comúnmente Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra. "This person whom you see here, with an oval visage, chestnut hair, smooth open forehead, lively eyes, a hooked but well-proportioned nose, and silvery beard that twenty years ago was golden, large moustaches, a small mouth, teeth not much to speak of, for he has but six, in bad condition and worse placed, no two of them corresponding to each other, a figure midway between the two extremes, neither tall nor short, a vivid complexion, rather fair than dark, somewhat stooped in the shoulders, and not very lightfooted: this, I say, is the author of Galatea, Don Quixote de la Mancha, The Journey to Parnassus, which he wrote in imitation of Cesare Caporali Perusino, and other works which are current among the public, and perhaps without the author's name. He is commonly called MIGUEL DE CERVANTES SAAVEDRA. Don Quixote was first published in 1605 and it's continuation in a second part was published in 1615. This mug commemorates both the IVth Centenary, which started in year 2005 and will end in 2015, and the 30th.
