Commentary | Cervantes' portrait sat at a table, holding a quill and writing.
In the background, a library with books behind a curtain. Drawing and engraving are quite acceptable, although the image results forced (notice the right hand, the face...). |
Notes | 1 - Process reproduction of portrait published in Novelas Ejemplares edition Haya: Neaulme, 1739.
2 - Cushing owns a copy of the original engraving. |
