| Commentary | Precise reference to Luscinda's story; don Fernando arrives at the convent to kidnap Luscinda, "la cual hallaron en el claustro hablando con una monja" (36:1).
The figures of Luscinda and the nun, drawn with skillful lines, are of great beauty; in the background, don Fernando hardly sketched. |
| Notes | 1 - Same tailpiece and wooden block first used for Paris: Dubochet, 1836-37.
2 - The initial "B." may refer to several engravers: Best (Andre, Best & Leloir), Louis-Henri Breviere, Beneworth, Bastin or, maybe, a different one. |
