Commentary | Don Quixote leaning on his lance at the inn courtyard during the vigil of his arms; accurate to Cervantes' text, the arms and armour have been placed on a water trough.
The innkeeper and some guests observe him from the inn. Good drawing and pleasant coloring (moonlight effects); in keeping with an edition for children. |
