Commentary | Don Quixote, mounted on Rocinante and completely armed, arrived to an inn, where he encounters two "ladies"; also the innkeeper.
In the background, a swineherd blowing his horn. Don Quixote has been represented as a real medieval errant knight. Drawing and engraving are very remarkable; good illustration. |
