Commentary | Don Quixote arrives at his home taken by Pedro Alonso on his mule; Rocinante carries don Quixote's armour and broken lance.
The housekeeper, niece, barber and priest appear to welcome him. Large size and well-detailed figures; don Quixote looks extremely young. Notice the figure on the left (the priest); very remarkable. Drawing and engraving are very remarkable; good and highly-detailed illustration. |
Notes | 1 - Process reproduction of Pinelli's etching for Roma: R. Gentilucci, 1833-34.
2 - Wrongly-placed in chapter 20:1. |
