| Commentary | Don Quixote, in bed, talks to the barber and the priest; also Sancho (on the right), the housekeeper and the niece (on the left).
Don Quixote's arms remain hanged on the wall. Setting resolved with little care and not many details. The quality of drawing and engraving is not too much good. |
