Commentary | Sancho, with a broom bunch (accurate to Cervantes' text), leaves for El Toboso mounted on Rocinante, while don Quixote remains doing penance in Sierra Morena (half-naked, doing a somersault in an undecorous manner).
Don Quixote's arms remain hanged on a tree. Drawing and engraving quite good. |
Notes | 1 – Copy after Clouzier's engraving (Paris: Compagnie des Libraires, 1700) after Bouttats' illustration for Amberes: Verdussen, 1672-73. |
