	Commentary	Cervantes' portrait sat at a table, holding a quill and writing. In the background, a library with books behind a curtain. Drawing and engraving are quite acceptable, although the image results forced (notice the right hand, the face...).
	Notes	1 - Photomechanical copy of the illustration appeared in Amsterdam/Leipzig: Arkstée & Merkus, 1755. 2 - Model of Cervantes' portrait designed by William Kent for London: Tonson, 1738; now, Cervantes' left hand is clearly-visible. 3 - The window with don Quixote and Sancho in the background has not been copied and Cervantes' figure has been turned. 4 - Jacob Folkema engraved this portrait in 1739 for an edition of the Novelas Ejemplares.
