Commentary | Well-known episode; after eating, the Duchess' damsels wash don Quixote's beard.
Drawing and engraving are excellent; the highly detailed setting is very remarkable too. Pellicer's illustrations show hard white and black contrasts; his scenes are quite dark to obtain a very realistic effect. |
