| Commentary | In the foreground, don Quixote and Sancho mounted on Clavileño; two servants simulate its flight with bellows and torches; another servant is lighting its fuse.
In the background, under a rich tent, the Duke and the Duchess observe the scene. This composition will be used without many changes until the 20th century. Acceptable drawing, but very poor engraving and printing. |
