| Commentary | Two different scenes in the same plate (archaic):
In the foreground, Sancho's blanketing is observed by don Quixote from behind the inn wall. In the background, don Quixote fighting with a flock of sheep. Simple composition that will be used until the 20th century. Drawing and engraving are poor. |
| Notes | 1 - Same plate first used for Amsterdam: Willem van Lamsveld, 1696.
2 – Bad copy after Savery’s plate (Dordrecht: Savery, 1657). |
