| Commentary | In the center of the composition, don Quixote with Mambrino's helmet (basin) shouting to calm down the fight around him (Agramante's Camp); also don Fernando, officers of justice, innkeeper...
On the right, Sancho and the barber fighting. On the left, standing, the priest. Drawing and engraving are quite acceptable; firmly-drawn figures. |
| Notes | 1 - Copy after Savery's illustration for Dordrecht: Savery, 1657 (and later editions); the position of some figures has been changed; the packsaddle has not been copied; the priest's figure is new.
2 - This plate appears twice in vol. II; f.p. 285 (Ch. XXXIX of this edition or 42-43:1; wrongly-placed) and f.p. 333 (Ch. XLI of this edition or 45:1; rightly-placed). |
