Commentary | In the center of the composition, don Quixote asleep and in shirt brandishing his sword against the wineskins; accurate to Cervantes' text, he has wrapped his arm with a blanket.
Don Quixote's figure is good. On the right, the innkeeper and Sancho entering the room. Well-known scene; good drawing and engraving. |
