Commentary | Andrés runs away when don Quixote stands up to punish him.
In the foreground, the priest, the barber, Cardenio, Dorotea and Sancho having lunch beside a spring. Vierge's style is absolutely masterly; his figures are detailed and real; also the setting, carefully-done. Notice also the perfect use of shading. His short and fine drawing lines imitate etching. |
Notes | 1 - Vierge's original drawings (Chinese ink and wash) were reproduced by photogravure (notice the plate mark); the specific technique used, heliogravure, allows an excellent reproduction both of the original wash halftones and of the lines. |
