Commentary | Well-known scene.
At the inn's courtyard, the innkeeper knights don Quixote, knelt before him. Also doña Tolosa (with a sword), doña Molinera (with the spurs) and the boy holding a candle. Drawing and engraving are quite acceptable as a whole, but with some faults (notice doña Tolosa's head). |
