Commentary | Don Quixote, accompanied by Sancho, gets ready to fight against the Knight of the Mirrors (Sansón Carrasco).
This setting (beach, a city in the background...) reminds the one for "Don Quixote and the Knight of the White Moon" (64:2); now, the scene should be set in a forest. Remarkable drawing and coloring; notice the contrast between blue and deep yellow. |
