The shading of Sancho's half-naked and in escorzo body is remarkable, although his arm is lightly disproportionate.
Drawing and engraving are quite acceptable as a whole.

| Commentary | In the foreground, Sancho whipping himself while, in the middle ground, don Quixote counts the lashes with his rosary; in the left background, Rocinante and the donkey.
