Commentary | Excellent image of Trifaldín accompanied by two drummers and one fife player; the representation is detailed and accurate to Cervantes' text: "amantado, no que vestido, con una negrísima loba, cuya falda era asimismo desaforada de grande. Por encima de la loba le ceñía y atravesaba un ancho tahelí, también negro, de quien pendía un desmesurado alfanje de guarniciones y vaina negra. Venía cubierto el rostro con un trasparente velo negro, por quien se entreparecía una longísima barba, blanca como la nieve" (36:2).
The image is very remarkable. |
