Commentary | Don Quixote mistakes the priest for Micomicona, and kneels before him to announce Pandafilando's death.
The illustration is not expressive enough; this is a very comical moment, but Johannot's scene results cold. |
Notes | 1 - Same illustration and wooden block first used for Paris: Dubochet, 1836-37. |
