Commentary | The priest and the barber during the scrutiny of don Quixote's library.
The illustration is more accurate to this abridged edition than to Cervantes' original text; in this edition, the priest himself throws the books through the window to the courtyard (not the housekeeper). Good use of white and black contrast. Original caricature/comical drawing style appropriate for a young readers' edition. |
