| Commentary | Don Quixote and Sancho mounted on Clavileño while several servants simulate its flight with a pair of bellows and torches; one of them has lighted its fuse.
The Duke and Duchess observe the scene. Set in a Versailles like garden (baroque architectures, hedges, one terminus...). Well-known composition since Savery (Dordrecht: Savery, 1657), but now it has been enriched. |
