| Commentary | At Juan Palomeque's inn, the innkeeper, Sancho and others discover don Quixote attacking asleep some wine skins with his sword; accurate to Cervantes' text, he is wearing only his shirt, a night cap and has wrapped his arm in a blanket.
Good drawing and engraving as a whole; don Quixote's figure, despite some deficiencies, is quite remarkable. |
