| Commentary | In Sierra Morena, Princess Micomicona (Dorotea) knelt before don Quixote, who tries to prevent her from doing it.
Also Sancho, holding the barber basin (Mambrino's helmet), and the barber disguised as Micomicona's page with a fake beard (ox-tail). Don Quixote's arms remain hanged on a tree. Drawing and engraving are quite acceptable; good small size print. |
