Commentary | Original choice; traditionally, it has been represented the previous moment when the page takes letters and presents to Teresa Panza (50:2); now, the page gives a cheese send by Teresa Panza to the Duchess.
Accurate to Cervantes' text: "... diole las bellotas, y más un queso, que Teresa le dio por ser muy bueno, que se aventajaba a los del Tronchón: recibiolo la Duquesa con grandísimo gusto" (52:2). Theatrical composition; figures framed by the curtain. Excellent drawing and engraving (see Duchess' figure, textures of her dress). Detailed and rich setting (chair, carpet, mirror...); theatrical. |
Notes | It includes reference "P. 179". |
