	Commentary	Sancho's blanketing in the courtyard of Juan Palomeque's inn observed by don Quixote from behind the inn wall. Well-known scene, but Vierge has resolved it as a very remarkable genre and picturesque scene; notice the characters in the foreground. Vierge's style is absolutely masterly; his figures are detailed and real, full of life; also the setting, carefully-done and based on real places from La Mancha. Notice also the perfect use of light and shadow, halftones and shading. Usual in Vierge's illustrations, some element in black creates a worth noting contrast. His short and fine drawing lines imitate etching.
