| Commentary | ".... Don Quixote spoke with such good sense...".
The priest and the barber visit don Quixote, in bed, to check if he is still mad. Also in the scene, the housekeeper and the niece. Bilbao's drawing tries to keep the realistic/picturesque style used by José and Luis Jiménez Aranda for the first part, but now the figures are lightly more expressionist (notice don Quixote and the housekeeper) and unfinished. |
