Commentary | Sancho accepts to be don Quixote's squire; both figures appears in the middle of a very realistic and daily village scene (a woman dressing a child, hens and chickens, children playing with a donkey, pigs...), creating a very good contrast between don Quixote and Sancho's "unreal" conversation and the reality that surrounds them. |
