| Commentary | In the foreground, Sancho wakes up and discovers that Ginés de Pasamonte has stolen his donkey; Don Quixote observes him with astonishment. In the background, Ginés de Pasamonte flees away with the donkey, although in Cervantes' text it is said: "y ántes que amaneciese se halló bien lejos de poder ser hallado" (23:1). The complete description of this scene (the saddle over four branches) appears in chapter 4:2.
Drawing and engraving are acceptable. |
| Notes | 1 - Copy of Coypel's illustration (Paris: Surugue, c. 1728-30) through Picart's copy (La Haye: Hondt, 1746). Both 1746 and 1777 copies with the same vertical format. Both c. 1728 and 1777 with the same composition; in 1746 it is inverted.
