	Commentary	Two different scenes (archaic): The first one, in the background: don Quixote fights with the muleteers during the vigil of his arms. The second one, in the foreground: don Quixote is knighted by the innkeeper while doña Molinera fits his spurs and doña Tolosa his sword. The boy holding a candle that appears in Cervantes' text is missing. Simple drawing; illustration with not many details and with very basic burin lines.
	Notes	1 - Photomechanical copy of the illustration appeared in Amberes: Verdussen, 1672-73. 2 - "La venta donde el héroe es armado caballero, en pleno día -cuando Cervantes la describió en plena noche-, es una vasta y buena posada flamenca, con amplias dependencias y árboles frondosos. Las mozas del partido son sirvientas solícitas, de carnes blancas y abundantes. El ventero viste como un burgués de Gante, con sombrero emplumado y espada al cinto" (Givanel 108-109).
