Stipple / Crayon manner
Drawing and engraving are bad, but the illustration is quite humorous: see don Quixote running (disproportionatly lengthened) and the donkey looking at Sancho.

| Commentary | Next instant of a well-known episode since Coypel (Paris: Surugue, after 1725). During the hunting of the wild boar with the Duke and the Duchess (ended in the background), Sancho, frightened, climbs over a tree and falls from it, remaining hanged and with his new clothes torn; don Quixote arrives to help him.
