Commentary | Two different scenes in the same plate:
The first one, in the background: don Quixote fights with the goatherd Eugenio while the priest, the barber, Sancho, the officers of justice and the canon observe them. The second scene, in the foreground: Sancho takes care of don Quixote, defeated by one of the penitents, while the priest talk to another priest. "El Cura fué conocido de otro Cura, que en la procesión venía, cuyo conocimiento puso en sosiego el concebido temor de los escuadrones" (52:1). Drawing and engraving are quite acceptable. |
