Commentary | In the foreground, don Quixote, with great dignity, puts the barber basin on his head, while Sancho Panza laughs.
In the background, the barber running away and leaving his mule fallen. Two women (not accurate to Cervantes' text) observe the scene. Well-detailed drawing and engraving. See rainbow in the background; it has rained at the beginning of this episode. |
