Commentary On the left, the group of the three peasant girls; on the right, don Quixote and Sancho, both knelt down.
Sancho introduces one of the peasant girls as the enchanted Dulcinea while holds the reins of her donkey.
In the background, El Toboso and its church.
Well-known composition; almost an inverted copy after Vanderbank (London: Tonson, 1738).
Acceptable drawing and engraving for this small size format; the background is badly-resolved.

2 - Placed as frontispiece for volume IV.
3 - Tomes III and IV are bound together in vol. II in Cushing copy.
