| Commentary | In the center, don Quixote attacking the theater and puppets; on the left, the innkeeper and others; on the right, Sancho, the broken theater and others.
Maese Pedro appears from inside the broken theater and his servant, who was telling don Gaiferos' tale, running away. Drawing and engraving are quite poor. |
