Commentary | Don Quixote in bed dead and with a crucifix on his chest (symbol of a Christian and sane death); aside, the niece (or the housekeeper) in mourning and the priest.
Traditionally, and following Cervantes' text, the figures of Sancho, Sansón Carrasco and the barber are also included. Remarkable drawing style and good use of white and black contrast. |
