	Commentary	Illustration more suggestive than clear in its relation with Cervantes' text. Don Quixote; it may refer to the moment when don Quixote informs Micomicona (as he imagines; the priest in fact) that he has already killed the giant Pandafilando (a wineskin; in the background, observed by an skeptic figure; the innkeeper?). Also in the illustration Sancho, sticking out his head from behind the wall. Don Quixote's figure, oneiric, without face and skeletal, is absolutely remarkable and highly suggestive; also the female figure, resolved with a red cloak. Many of the elements of the illustration are characteristic of Dalí (the ants on the wall, the phallic red figure, the desert landscape...).
