Commentary When don Quixote and Sancho are ready to leave the Duke's castle, Altisidora pretend to be angry/afflicted, accusing them of having stolen her a pair of garters and three kerchiefs.
Remarkable composition and setting; accurate representation of the staircase and courtyard (detail) of the Hospital de Santa Cruz (Toledo).
