Commentary | Reference (quite free) to the dialogue among don Quixote, the niece and the housekeeper; don Quixote says that every errant knight has to combat against his enemies always, even if they are stronger; "si lleva o no lleva más corta la lanza o la espada..." (6:2).
Notice the comical contrast between don Quixote on Rocinante and the other imposing knight. Good drawing style. |
