Commentary | Don Quixote orders the defeated Knight of the Mirrors (Sansón Carrasco) to go to El Toboso to prostrate himself before Dulcina; also in the scene, Tomé Cecial (disguised with a fake big nose as squire) and Sancho.
French setting (influenced by Coypel's designs); quite acceptable drawing and engraving. |
Notes | 1 - Captions in French and Spanish.
2 - Compare with Coypel's design (Paris: Surugue, 1728-31). |
