Commentary | Excellent image of don Quixote at his library.
Reference to the dialogue between the housekeeper, the niece, the priest and the barber when don Quixote is taken back home; the niece explains his uncle's madness: "arrojaba el libro de las manos, y ponía mano a la espada" (5:1). Remarkable and very original drawing style, and good coloring. |
Notes | 1 - Same illustration already published in Paris: Sous l'Emblème de Secrétaire, 1938.
2 - Wrongly-placed in chapter 22:1. |
