Commentary | Don Quixote, on Rocinante, talking with Juan Haldudo and urging him to free Andrés.
Don Quixote's figure is quite remarkable, elegant and serious; Juan Haldudo's figure is clearly English. Good and detailed engraving; notice the short and curved burin lines used to shade the tree and to represent the leaves (maybe, it has been used etching too). |
Notes | The illustration is dated on September 1, 1792. |
