Commentary | In the foreground, after defeating don Quixote, Cardenio hits Sancho; the goatherd goes to their assistance.
Simple composition. Drawing and engraving are bad and poor in details; figures without naturalism and artificial gestures. |
Notes | 1 - Same plate by unknown engraver first engraved for Brussels: Mommarte, 1662, which was a bad copy after Savery's composition (Dordrecht: Savery, 1657). |
