| Commentary | Sancho, with a huge broom bunch (accurate to Cervantes' text), leaves for El Toboso mounted on Rocinante, while don Quixote remains doing penance (half-naked, doing a somersault in an undecorous manner).
Don Quixote's arms hung on a tree. Drawing and engraving are quite acceptable. |
