| Commentary | The niece and the housekeeper prevent Sancho from going into don Quixote's house; their expressions and gestures are exaggerated; the scene looks like a comical performance.
In the background, the barber and the priest (their figures are only sketched). Housekeeper's figure is remarkable. |
