Commentary Well-known scene.
In the foreground, don Quixote has defeated the Knight of the Mirrors (Sansón Carrasco, fallen on the ground); notice don Quixote's threatening face.
In the background, the squire (Tomé Cecial with a big fake nose) looks at Sancho, who remains climbed on the tree.
Sancho's figure is forced; the figure of the Knight of the Mirrors is remarkable. 
Notes 1 - Same plate first engraved for Paris: Didot L'Aîné-Deterville, 1799 (1st ed.), but now (2nd ed.) without frame and re-engraved signature.
