Commentary | The ecclesiastic, angry with the Duke and the Duchess because both are encouraging don Quixote's madness, leaves the room; also Sancho in the scene.
Excellent drawing and engraving, although the ecclesiastic's figure seems forced. |
Notes | 1 - Same plate first engraved for Edinburgh: William Paterson, 1879-84.
2 - According to Givanel, in this illustration "triunfa ya plenamente la tendencia nueva [naturalism]. Esto es ya un cuadrito de Meissonier" (Givanel 245). |
