Commentary | Well-known episode; Marstrand has chosen the moment when don Quixote has already defeated the barber (fleeing away in the background) and is trying to fit the basin (Mambrino's helmet) on his head; Sancho observes him astonished.
The setting (see the light and the shadows) reminds a dry landscape that could be La Mancha. |
