Commentary | The rais of a captured brigantine, a handsome youth, is taken before the general of the galley and the viceroy; also other men and Sancho looking with curiosity at the youth. Don Quixote appears in the center of the image with his back turned on the viewer.
Drawing and engraving are excellent. The composition is quite interesting; we can not almost see the youth (to preserve the real identity of the youth) and don Quixote has been placed in the center but with his back turned on the viewer. The gestures of the general, viceroy and other men are very remarkable. |
