Period: 1850-1900;
Geographic: Spain; Europe
Description: During their banquet, a goatherd wanders into the inn while chasing his goat. The company is amused by his mannerisms and invite him to join in the banquet. He tells the company a story as they feast, but Don Quixote interjects impudently. Eventually, the goatherd gets fed up and insults Don Quixote, Quixote throws a piece of bread at the goatherd and the two of them brawl on the floor next to the table as the company cheers them on, with the goatherd on the top strangling Don Quixote beneath him.
