| Commentary | Sancho explains to the bachelor Sansón Carrasco how Ginés de Pasamonte stole his donkey while he was sleeping mounted on it; Ginés left Sancho on the packsaddle on four stakes.
The image of Sancho sleeping on the packsaddle on four stakes or the scene when Sancho discovers the robbery of his donkey were well-known; Houghton represents Sancho falling from the packsaddle with great novelty. Drawing and engraving are excellent. |
