| Commentary | Basilio, pretending to have stabbed himself, gets married with Quiteria; also Camacho (behind Quiteria), the priest holding Basilio's body, don Quixote and Sancho.
It is remarkable the variety of gestures and expressions of the figures surrounding Basilio and Quiteria. Some of the guests are dressing very elaborated clothes (robes and headdresses); they are not too much Spanish. |
