| Commentary | Original choice; not the usual scene when don Quixote meets tne "enchanted" Dulcinea, but a later moment.
Dulcinea, after falling from her donkey, jumps on it amazing Sancho and don Quixote; "la señora [...] tomó una corridica, y puestas ambas manos sobre las ancas de la pollina, dio con su cuerpo, más ligero que un halcón, sobre la albarda, y quedó a horcajadas, como si fuera hombre; y entonces dijo Sancho: ¡Vive Roque, que es la señora nuestra ama más ligera que un acotán [...]!" (10: 2). Good drawing and engraving. |
