| Commentary | Landscape with three innocent and fair young shepherdesses based on don Quixote's Golden Age speech; "andaban las simples, y hermosas zagalejas de valle en valle, y de otero en otero, en trenza, y en cabello, sin más vestidos de aquellos que eran menester para cubrir honestamente, lo que la honestidad quiere" (11:1).
