	Commentary	Coypel chose a great number of episodes about don Quixote and the Dukes because these allowed him theatrical, court and baroque compositions. This is one of those great and theatrical illustrations (with rich clothes, many figures, detailed baroque arquitectures, French gardens, curtains...), but the result is not too much accurate to Cervantes' text. Don Quixote was undressed by the Duchess' maidens, but he dressed himself alone, just with Sancho. Carefully-drawn and engraved gestures.
	Notes	1 - Photomechanical copy (not good in details) of the illustration appeared in Amsterdam/Leipzig: Arkstée & Merkus, 1755. 2 - Copy after Coypel's design (first appeared in Surugue: Paris, 1724; also copied for La Haye: Pierre de Hondt, 1746). 3 - Same plate first engraved for La Haye: P. Gosse & A. Moetjens, 1744.
