	Commentary	Scene resolved with a basic composition. Don Quixote and Sancho kneel down before three peasant girls mounted on donkeys. Sancho introduces one of the peasant girls as the enchanted Dulcinea and don Quixote tries to kiss her foot. The three peasant girls are represented as French maidens. Baroque landscape including a lake with fishermen (very different from La Mancha landscape). Well-detailed drawing and engraving.
	Notes	1 - Picart signs as "del. et Sculp." (draw and engraved), but this is a copy after Coypel's illustration (Paris: Surugue, c. 1728-30). 2 - The composition has been turned and the format now is vertical, so Picart has enlarged the trees and the sky. Picart has also changed the position of the donkey (now, looking upwards). 3 - Picart died in 1733, so the plate was engraved in this year or before.
