Commentary | Doña Tolosa fitting don Quixote's sword and doña Molinera his spurs.
Also the innkeeper holding a book, he has just knighted don Quixote, and a boy holding a candle. The scene has been represented outdoors traditionally. Large-size figures; don Quixote looks disproportionate. Very remarkable illustration as a whole. |
