| Commentary | Two different scenes in the same illustration (archaic):
In the foreground, don Quixote defeating one of the slaves guards while another one on horseback flees away. In the background, the consequence: don Quixote and Sancho Panza are stoned by the same slaves. Drawing and engraving are quite acceptable; deficient inking/printing. |
