| Commentary | In the foreground, don Quixote defeating Alonso López; Sancho observes the scene.
In the background, the funeral procession companions holding tapers and torches. Drawing and engraving are acceptable, but simple and poor; Alonso López's figure, falling from his mule, is remarkable. |
