Commentary Pellicer has illustrated three moments of the same episode. In this first illustration (second in the time), don Quixote kisses doña Rodríguez' right hand with great ceremony. Accurate to Cervantes' text, doña Rodríguez is holding a candle.
Among the three illustration, this is the one chosen with more originallity.
The engraving is excellent.
