| Commentary | In the center, the group of don Quixote (we do not see his face) attacking the Basque; don Quixote looks like a real knight and Rocinante a powerful horse. The figures are seen from a low point of view, looking bigger.
In the background, the carriage of the Basque lady and Sancho. Good engraving. |
