| Commentary | Since Paris: Surugue, 1723, this gallant scene, with not many changes, is habitual in 18th and 19th centuries editions.
Sancho speaks to the Duchess, who rides a white horse and holds a goshawk (accurate to Cervantes' text), and points to don Quixote (in the background). Just one maiden accompanies the Duchess; in other illustrations, her retinue is larger. Bad drawing, disproportionate figures and clumsy engraving. |
| Notes | 1 - Bad copy of Coypel's illustration (Paris: Surugue, 1723) through Jacob van der Schley's copy (La Haye: Hondt, 1746). Both 1746 and 1777 copies with the same vertical format. Both 1723 and 1777 illustrations with the same composition; in 1746 it is turned.
2 - In Cushing's copy, tomes III and IV are bound together (volume II). |
