Commentary Two different scenes in the same plate (archaic):
In the background, the first one: don Quixote attacking the windmills while Sancho, knelt, prays.
On the right, two Benedictine monks on their mules (?).
In the foreground, the second one: don Quixote fights with the Basque, while a Basque lady observes them from her carriage.
The Basque holding a shield (?) is not accurate to Cervantes' text; it should be a cushion.
Drawing and engraving are very acceptable despite some disproportions in background figures. 
Notes 1 - Photomechanical copy of the illustration appeared in Paris: Compagnie des Libraires, 1713.
