| Commentary | In the center, the barber maese Nicolás declares before the mocked barber that the basin is Mambrino's helmet.
On the left, don Quixote stops Sancho, who wants to recuperate the stolen packsaddle; the priest and several characters (don Fernando, officers of justice...) observe the scene. English picturesque setting; some anecdotal details (dog). Acceptable engraving, but not in some details. |
