| Commentary | In Sierra Morena, before Sancho leaves for El Toboso (village represented in the background?), don Quixote does some somersaults as love penance.
Sancho, accurate to Cervantes' text, mounted on Rocinante and with a broom bunch. Don Quixote's arms remain hanged on a tree. Drawing and engraving are acceptable, but with little merit. |
