Commentary Excellent and detailed portrait of Montesinos, as described by don Quixote; "un venerable anciano, vestido con un capuz de bayeta morada, que por el suelo le arrastraba: ceñíale los hombros y los pechos una beca de colegial, de raso verde; cubríale la cabeza una gorra milanesa negra, y la barba, canísima, le pasaba de la cintura; no traía arma ninguna, sino un rosario de cuentas en la mano" (23:2).
Drawing and engraving are masterly (see Montesinos' face and right hand, the shading of his gown...). 
Notes 1 - Placed in chapter 25:2.
