Commentary | Sancho explains to his wife that he may become a governor.
Very original illustration. Doré has resolved it with two different parts; first, the reality: Sancho, his wife, their children (one of them naked) and animals; then, the fantasy: in the sky, among clouds, Sancho as a governor. |
Notes | 1 - Process reproduction after Doré and Pisan's original print (Paris: L. Hachette et Cie., 1863). |
