Commentary | Sancho, hidden among some trees, pretends to whip himself (he whips the tree trunks); meanwhile, don Quixote counts the lashes.
Remarkable drawing and etching; Sancho's figure and gesture have been resolved well. |
Notes | 1 - The illustration is almost a copy after Smirke's (London: Cadell, 1818). |
