Commentary | At dawn, Sancho discovers the ugly (and fake) nose of the Knight of the Mirrors' squire (Tomé Cecial), getting frightened.
In the background, a windmill. Good drawing and engraving. In an ornamental and architectural frame with a mask; the whole illustration has got a remarkable decorative effect. |
