Commentary | Usual composition in "X":
One line (narrative action) from don Quixote (top left) to the defeated Knight of the Mirrors (bottom right); other line from Sancho (bottom left) to Tomé Cecial taking off his fake nose (top right). The position of the Knight of the Mirrors (Sansón Carrasco) is forced, not too natural; idyllic setting (forest). |
Notes | 1 - This scene was illustrated by Jerónimo Antonio Gil and engraved by Fernando Selma for Madrid: Ibarra, 1780, but in a different way. |
