	Commentary	Don Quixote and Sancho, both blindfolded, mounted on Clavileño while the firecrackers inside the wooden horse begin to explode; the Duke's servants throw themselves to ground to protect themselves from the explosion. Vierge's style is masterly; detailed figures and perfect use of light and shading. Usual in Vierge's illustrations, some element in black creates a worth noting contrast. His short and fine drawing lines imitate etching.
	Notes	1 - Vierge's original drawings (Chinese ink and wash) were reproduced by photogravure (notice the plate mark); the specific technique used, heliogravure, allows an excellent reproduction both of the original wash halftones and of the lines.
