Commentary | Don Quixote's encounter with the Knight of the White Moon (Sansón Carrasco) on the beach of Barcelona; in the background Sancho with his donkey.
Vierge's has prefered to represent this previous moment, he has not represented don Quixote defeated. Vierge's style is masterly; detailed figures and good setting. Usual in Vierge's illustrations, some element in black creates a worth noting contrast. His short and fine drawing lines imitate etching. |
