Commentary | Don Quixote aims his lance against the defeated Alonso López, fallen on the ground beside his mule and a lighted torch (accurate to Cervantes' text); the other ecclesiastics run away leaving the bier with the dead body.
Well-resolved night setting; good light and shadow contrasts. Good drawing. |
