The title page of the first (1605) edition of Cervantes' Don Quijote
Francisco de Robles was a bookseller in Madrid, whose shop was near the
Puerta de Guadalajara. He was also a publisher; among his books are the first editions of
Don Quixote (1605) and the
Exemplary Novels (1613), by
Miguel de Cervantes.
Robles contracted with the printer
Juan de la Cuesta to print
Don Quijote in his shop at Atocha 87, in Madrid, which is today a museum and cultural center, and home of the
Sociedad Cervantina.
Robles was
godfather of Cuesta's two children.

Before moving to Madrid, his father,
Blas de Robles, had published Cervantes'
La Galatea in 1585 in nearby
Alcalá de Henares,
[2] after paying Cervantes 336
reales for its
copyright (privilegio).
