Etching (acquaforte)
Rocinante appears with a light disproportion, but it is very effective to suggest movement and violence.
The print is of great quality.

| Commentary | From the right foreground, Sancho Panza tries to convince don Quixote (in the left background attacking the sheep; some of them already dead) that the flock of sheep is not an army.
Rocinante appears with a light disproportion, but it is very effective to suggest movement and violence. The print is of great quality. |
