| Commentary | Usual in Mahn's illustrations for Don Quixote, the scene is resolved with small-size figures (mere silhouettes) set in a wide landscape (with a castle and a village in the background; sketched from life in La Mancha).
The characters are secondary before the landscape. |
| Notes | 1 - Placed in chapter 28:2, but this scene belongs to chapter 27:2. |
