	Commentary	Three different scenes in the same plate (archaic): In the background, the first one: don Quixote attacks the windmills while Sancho tries to stop him. In the middle ground, the second one: Sancho is beaten by the Benedictine monks' servants. In the foreground, don Quixote fights with the Basque, while a Basque lady observes them from her carriage. The Basque holding a stool is not accurate to Cervantes' text; it should be a cushion. Clumsy drawing, figures without movement and wrong perspective (windmills).
	Notes	1 - Same plate first engraved for Brussels: Mommarte, 1662, which copied Savery's design badly (Dordrecht: Savery, 1657).
