| Commentary | This illustration copies that by Bouttats (Amberes: Verdussen, 1672 - 1673), who had re-organized Savery's composition (Dordrecht: Savery, 1657) changing the position of the characters in the foreground (Andrés and Juan Haldudo) and putting Rocinante at a gallop.
The engraving is more detailed regarding the landscape. Don Quixote and Rocinante are drawn disproportionately. |
