Commentary | In Sierra Morena, Princess Micomicona (Dorotea) kneels before don Quixote begging for his help, while the knight tries to make her stand up; also in the scene, Sancho and Micomicona's squire (the barber disguised with a fake beard).
Don Quixote's arms still hanged on a tree. Good drawing and engraving; Dorotea's figure is specially remarkable. |
