The vignette, resolved with great simplicity, is very remarkable; see Sancho's caring gesture and don Quixote's funny figure (almost totally tucked into bed).

| Commentary | After the dance in don Antonio Moreno's house, don Quixote is taken to bed by Sancho, "y dio con su amo en la cama, arropándole para que sudase la frialdad de su baile" (62:2).
The vignette, resolved with great simplicity, is very remarkable; see Sancho's caring gesture and don Quixote's funny figure (almost totally tucked into bed). |
