Commentary | In the center of the composition, don Quixote driving his sword into an enormous wild boar surrounded by hunting dogs; Coypel emphasizes drama in this scene.
In the background, the Duke embracing the Duchess; she looks like a new Diana. In the foreground, but just at one side, the humorous part: Sancho flees away climbing a tree. |
