Commentary At night in Juan Palomeque's inn, doña Clara tells her love story to Dorotea trying not to awake Luscinda (sleeping in the foreground).
Illustration resolved with great accuracy.
Remarkable use of wood engraving to create effective black and white contrasts and figures of great volume; notice the use of very fine lines.
