Commentary | Accurate to Cervantes' text, the innkeeper, holding a sword and a book, knights don Quixote, knelt before him.
Doña Tolosa holds don Quixote's sword and doña Molinera his spurs. It also appears the boy with a candle. Two other women do not belong to Cervantes' text. Poor drawing and engraving. |
Notes | 1 - Poor copy after Coypel's illustration in La Haye: Hondt, 1746. |
