Commentary | Detailed portrait of the Knight of the Mirrors' squire; drawing and engraving have been carefully done; the most remarkable part of the portrait, accurate to Cervantes' text, is the big and false nose; "corva en la mitad y toda llena de verrugas, de color amoratado, como de berenjena; bajábale dos dedos más abajo de la boca; cuya grandeza, color, verrugas y encorvamiento así le afeaban el rostro" (14:2). |
