Commentary | The barber (?) seizes by the throat a figure arisen from don Quixote's head; the barber appears as to shave that figure, with the basin under his head, but the barber's gesture, armed with a dagger, not a razor, is threatening.
Aside, over Sancho's figure, a pair of fried eggs (reality). Suggestive scene in keeping with Dalí's surrealism. |
