Commentary | Also in the scene, Sanchica, taking the page's horse by the bridle.
Accurate to Cervantes' text, Teresa Panza holds a ball of tow. Remarkable setting, with excellent picturesque and comical details (notice the neighbors in the background). Well-known scene, but resolved with worth-noting personal style. |
