| Commentary | When don Quixote tries to cut some nets, two shepherdesses appear and recognize don Quixote and Sancho (notice their gestures).
Simple composition: on the left, don Quixote and Sancho and, on the right, the two shepherdesses; behind them, the net. Some interesting details: a cage with one of the birds that they have caught. Drawing and engraving are quite acceptable as a whole despite some faults. |
