Commentary | Micomicona (Dorotea) kneels before don Quixote and the knight tries to prevent her from doing it.
The barber, disguised with a beard (ox tail), laughs, while Sancho holds the barber basin. Behind the trees, the priest and Cardenio are hidden. The scene has been resolved with the basic composition. Well-detailed drawing and engraving. |
