| Commentary | At the inn, one of the party girls helps don Quixote to eat; the other party girl and the innkeeper observe the scene.
In the background, the arrival of a swineherd; accurate to Cervantes' text. Drawing and engraving are excellent; notice the figures of the innkeeper (very Spanish) and the party girl leant on the table, both very remarkable; notice the well-drawn volume of the dress in the same figure too. |
