Commentary | Two different scenes in the same plate:
The first one, in the foreground: don Quixote kneels before a peasant girl mounted on a donkey introduced by Sancho as the enchanted Dulcinea; two more peasant girls accompany her. The second one, in the background: the "enchanted Dulcinea" falls from his donkey and don Quixote tries to help her. Drawing, shading and engraving are quite good; detailed figures and setting; good gestures and expressions; remarkable style. |
