| Commentary | Don Quixote remains standing on Rocinante and with his hand tied to a window; meanwhile, four travelers arrive to the inn from the background.
Well-known scene. Excellent drawing and engraving; notice don Quixote's frightened expression. Remarkable and highly-detailed ornamental frame; it includes a castle, dragons, the barber basin, an Arab manuscript, one sword and Micomicona's portrait among roses. |
