Commentary | Don Quixote gets ready to fight against a lion, but the animal remains into its cage although the lion keeper has opened the gate; the carter, Sancho and don Diego de Miranda run away.
Very original and colorful illustration with elements from figurative, expressionist, abstract and naive art; the result is a contemporary and very suggestive version of an illustrated and bright medieval codex. |
