Commentary | On the right, the group of the three peasant girls; on the left, don Quixote and Sancho, both knelt down.
Sancho introduces one of the peasant girls as the enchanted Dulcinea while holds the reins of her donkey. Well-known composition; almost an inverted copy after Vanderbank (London: Tonson, 1738). In the background, El Toboso and its church. Drawing and engraving are quite good despite some light fault. |
Notes | 1 – Copy in a reduced size after Antonio Carnicero’s illustration for Madrid: Ibarra, 1780. |
