| Commentary | Don Quixote, Micomicona, the priest, Cardenio, Sancho and the barber leave Sierra Morena; Doré has illustrated a precise instant of the dialogue between Micomicona and don Quixote: "No más: cesen mis alabanzas -dijo a esta sazón don Quijote-, porque soy enemigo de todo género de adulación; y, aunque ésta no lo sea, todavía ofenden mis castas orejas semejantes pláticas" (29:1).
Drawing and engraving are excellent; notice Micomicona's detailed clothes and the remarkable figure of don Quixote. |
