Commentary In "Sobre las Estampas desta Historia" (I, i-viii), John Oldfield defends the selection of episodes with dialogues and speeches.
In the center, don Quixote talks to several shepherds about the Golden Age; the shepherds listen to him captively and attentively.
One shepherd (left foreground) is especially remarkable; his figure is classical.
In contrast to this shepherd, Sancho does not listen to don Quixote and his only worry is eating; he looks like a gluttonous child (this figure is very different to those in other illustrations).
