Commentary | Alonso Quixono loses his mind and becomes the Knigh Don Quixote de la Mancha; he appears at his library, drawing his sword, surrounded by arms and with a book fallen onto the floor.
Good image of don Quixote with well drawn face and gesture; see how the main figure and elements have been perfectly drawn and engraved, while the setting remains sketched. |
