Commentary | "The scene is the interior of the inn yard. Quixote has just dismounted, and, hat in hand, is making a low bow to the innkeeper's daughter, who is descending the stairs, preceded by a barking dog. Sancho is in the act of getting off Dapple. There are four figures on the landing to which the stairs lead. In all seven figures, a horse, an ass, a dog and two ducks. Signed GAMBA, 1876. This clever picture, of which the composition is excellent, and the lights and shades most skilfully managed, is owned by the author" (Ashbee, pp. 163-164, 428). |
