| Commentary | The priest, barber, niece and housekeeper during the scrutiny of don Quixote's library.
While the priest and the barber read the books and decide which can be saved, the housekeeper throws through the window those that must be burnt. The niece only observes the scene. Drawing and engraving are simple, but acceptable; colored with bright colors adequate for a children's edition. |
