| Commentary | In the center: Quiteria and Basilio, who pretends to have stabbed himself; both well-lighted.
On the right, Camacho ready to draw his sword. From the left, don Quixote goes to stop him, while Sancho stays protecting his food. Also the priest and several women. Theatrical composition. Drawing and engraving are quite remarkable. |
