Description
-
Having intimidated the Keeper into opening the lion's cage Don Quixote (left) clad in full armor, readies his shield in front of his chest and prepares to strike with his sword at the lion's first attack. The male lion (right) of imposing size and extravagant mane, stretches its legs out of the confines of the cage and looks at Quixote, taking no notice of the knight's desire for combat. The cage where the lion is kept has two royal banners atop its roof, the doors to the cage opened wide.
