	Commentary	Well-known scene; composition with little novelty in comparison with Vanderbank's (London: Tonson, 1738) or Castillo's (Madrid: Ibarra, 1780). Don Quixote, knelt down and serious in the center of the composition, surrounded by the boy with a candle, the innkeeper, doña Tolosa and doña Molinera (another vague figure in the background). The candle produces interesting light and shade night effects; see colors (greys, browns...) and shines in don Quixote's armor.
	Notes	Unsigned. Cushing Library also has a set including this illustration with some differences in color. John Heaviside Clark (¿?, c. 1770 – Edinburgh, 1863): Landscape and seascape painter and book illustrator. He was called “Waterloo Clark” because of the sketches he made during the Waterloo battle. He elaborated illustrations for his own Practical essay on the Art of Colouring and Painting Landscapes (1807), Samuel Butler’s Hudibras (1819) and Gilpin’s A Practical illustration on Gilpin’s day (1824). Between 1801 and 1832, he exposed several landscapes at the Royal Academy. His sketches and watercolors were well reproduced by hand colored acquatints (Benezit III, 49). The chosen illustrations are almost the same than in London: Miller, 1801. In this edition, Castillo's illustration (Madrid: Ibarra, 1780) also appears and, maybe, Clark was inspired by it.
