Commentary | When don Quixote tries to cut some nets, two shepherdesses appear and recognize don Quixote and Sancho.
Simple composition: on the left, don Quixote and Sancho and, on the right, the two shepherdesses; among them, the net. Don Quixote's figure on Rocinante has been resolved well; the shepherdess on the left is remarkable too, but the one on the right not too much. Some interesting details: a cage with one of the birds that they have caught. |
