Commentary | Accurate to Cervantes' text, Dorotea kneels before don Fernando and embraces his legs when he tries to draw his sword against Cardenio, who is holding Luscinda, fainted.
This four characters are especially well-drawn and engraved, but the other figures are remarkable too (Sancho, the priest, the barber, the innkeeper and her wife and Maritornes); notice the variety of movements, expressions and gestures creating a great confusion. |
