Commentary | Accurate representation of Countess Trifaldi's retinue: Trifaldín with a white beard; countess Trifaldi, veiled, in mourning and with a three-pointed skirt held by three pages; and several dueñas in mourning.
Remarkable figures (the Duchess, Trifaldín...); detailed court setting (garden, classical sculptures, fountain...). Don Quixote and Sancho Panza in a secondary position. |
