	Commentary	The scene is resolved with the basic composition. Micomicona (Dorotea) kneels down before don Quixote and the knight tries to prevent her from doing it. The barber, also knelt and disguised with a beard (ox tail), laughs, while Sancho holds the barber basin. Behind the trees, the priest and Cardenio are hidden. Well-detailed drawing and engraving (see Micomicona's dress, trees, cascade...).
	Notes	1 - From set "Sold by G. Vander Gucht in Queen Street Bloomsbury" (London, c. 1725 or later); numbered as plate 6. 2 - Copy engraved by Gerard van der Gucht? after Coypel's illustration (Paris: Surugue, c. 1724); the composition has been turned in comparison with Coypel's, but they both have the same large horizontal format.
