The scene, in keeping with Romanticism taste, is sublime (small size human figures before the immeasurable nature).
Drawing and engraving are excellent.

| Commentary | Don Quixote and Sancho enter Sierra Morena; Doré has placed both characters on the top of a hill from where it can be seen a vast mountain landscape.
The scene, in keeping with Romanticism taste, is sublime (small size human figures before the immeasurable nature). Drawing and engraving are excellent. |
