Commentary | Montesinos, knelt before Durandarte's tomb, tells his story to don Quixote.
Vierge's style is masterly; detailed figures and excellent setting. Perfect use of light and shadow, halftones and shading. Usual in Vierge's illustrations, some element in black creates a worth noting contrast. His short and fine drawing lines imitate etching. |
