Commentary Centrifugal composition (more movement) where don Quixote attacking the theater and puppets is the center and the other figures form a "V".
On the left, the innkeeper and others.
On the right, Sancho, the broken theater and others.
Maese Pedro appears from inside the broken theater and his servant, who was telling don Gaiferos' tale, running away.
Theatrical and baroque composition; all the characters appear looking at the viewer and a large curtain has been placed as backdrop.
Drawing and engraving are of unequal quality; the use of stipple is quite remarkable. 
Notes 1 - Copy after Coypel's illustration (Paris: Surugue, c. 1723).
2 - Placed as a frontispiece.
