Commentary | Alonso Quijano talks about chivalric books to the barber, maese Nicolás, and the priest.
Scene resolved with great naturalism; don Quixote, standing up and holding a book, with gesture of discussing with the barber about which one is the best knight (barber's gesture is remarkable too); the priest observes don Quixote. |
Notes | 1 - Same illustration first published in Paris: Dubochet, 1836. |
