	Commentary	Don Quixote, on Rocinante (the innkeeper holds its reins), arrives at the inn; here, he encounters two "ladies" ("mujeres del partido") to whom don Quixote says that they must not be afraid of him (notice his gesture). In the background, a swineherd blowing a horn; don Quixote confuses him with a dwarf welcoming him. The setting has nothing to do with real "manchega" architecture. Drawing and engraving are excellent.
	Notes	1 - Plate 1. Dated March, 1798. 2 - Re-engraved copy after Hogarth's illustration for London: Tonson, 1738; Hogarth used a previous design by Vanderbank and this was the only illustration included in Tonson's edition. His other six illustrations were rejected. The page refers to John Ireland's work Hogarth Illustrated (vol. 3, 1798); Cushing's copy is from a set of proofs of the 9 illustrations for this edition.
