| Commentary | After the hunting, the Duke, the Duchess, don Quixote and Sancho witness the appearance of the Devil on horseback; "un postillón que en traje de demonio les pasó por delante tocando en vez de corneta un hueco y desmesurado cuerno, que un ronco y espantoso son despedía" (34:2).
The Duke and don Quixote surprised; the Duchess and Sancho frightened. The figures of Devil, don Quixote and the Duchess are more highlighted by the light. Carefully-done burin engraving (see Duchess' dress, trees, don Quixote's armor...). |
