| Commentary | Sancho, with a broom bunch (accurate to Cervantes' text), leaves for El Toboso mounted on Rocinante, while don Quixote remains doing penance in Sierra Morena (half-naked, doing a somersault in an undecorous manner).
Don Quixote's arms remain hung on a tree. Drawing and engraving quite good. |
