| Commentary | Well-known scene; usually used as last illustration in 18th century editions since Vanderbank (London: Tonson, 1738).
Don Quixote, dying, says goodbye to Sancho, the priest, the barber and Sansón Carrasco; also the niece and the housekeeper (these two figures are taken from the "Commedia dell'Arte"; the housekeeper is dressed in a quite ridiculous way). Some acceptable details (don Quixote's face), but, as a whole, drawing and engraving are bad (see Sancho's figure). |
