Governor Sancho, represented with dignity, judges the case of a man accused of rape.
In the foreground, the accused man tries to recover the money that, by order of Sancho, he has given to the accusing woman.
Good setting.
Some men observe the scene.
Drawing and engraving are simple, but acceptable; strong burin lines. |
