Commentary | Well-known scene since Coypel (Paris: Surugue, c. 1734) and Vanderbank (London: Tonson, 1738); now, without too much novelty.
In the foreground, next to a stream, Dorotea washing her feet and "combing" her hair. From the right, the priest, the barber and Cardenio appear, surprising her. Poor engraving and printing. |
