| Commentary | In the foreground, don Quixote fallen on the ground defeated by the Knight of the White Moon (Sansón Carrasco) on Barcelona beach.
In the background, Sancho, Antonio Moreno, the viceroy and others. Well-known scene; it has been represented almost with the same composition since Savery (Dordrecht: Savery, 1657). Good engraving. |
