| Commentary | Well-known scene since Savery (Dordrecht: Savery, 1657). Marstrand repeats an almost typified composition (see the same by Johannot in Paris: Dubochet, 1836 - 1837); don Quixote attacks the theater while Maese Pedro appears from behind it to stop don Quixote; Sancho and others observe them.
Some details are accurate to Cervantes' text (ape without tail), but others not (Maese Pedro without the parch on his eye). |
| Notes | According to the Index included at the end of the volume, this illustration (Plate VI) is rightly placed. |
