| Commentary | Don Quixote attacking and destroying Maese Pedro's theater and puppets.
Well-known scene, but Houghton's illustration is very remarkable; notice don Quixote's expression and eyes, full of fury; image of great violence, force and well-represented movement (the puppets "flying" in pieces). In the background, Sancho observes the scene. Drawing and engraving are masterly. |
