Commentary | The background is divided in two parts: underneath, the dead shepherd Grisóstomo, his friend Ambrosio, Vivaldo reading Grisóstomo's song and don Quixote; above, Marcela's appearance and speech.
Marcela's figure copies saint Gabriel's traditional image. In the foreground, several shepherds digging Grisóstomo's grave. Drawing and engraving are quite acceptable. |
Notes | 1 - Copied after Savery's illustration for Dordrecht: Savery, 1657.
