Commentary | Don Quixote, in bed, dying sane as Alonso Quijano; around him, the barber, priest, housekeeper, Sancho and niece.
Well-known scene and composition; also it's usual the crucifix as a symbol of don Quixote's sane and christian death. Remarkable figures, gestures and expressions and worth-noting watercolor details (notice the priest's soutane). |
Notes | 1 - B/w illustrations are signed not only by the painter (AW), but also by the photographer/technician; however, his signature has not been identified; it is formed by the initials superimposed (A? C? T? P?) and the reference "ph." (photographer or photographed). |
