Commentary | Four travelers (in Cervantes' text; only one in the illus.) arrive to the inn and find don Quixote standing on Rocinante with his hand tied to a window; Rocinante begins to move to smell one of the mares, making don Quixote fall down.
Also the innkeeper, but he should not appear yet. Drawing and engraving are acceptable, but the three figures are forced. |
