Geographic: Spain; Europe
Description: At around four in the afternoon Don Fernando orders the innkeeper to provide his company with a banquet. They all sat down at a long table, like those in great halls. On the upper end of the table sat Don Quixote (top left) and next to him sat princess Micomicona. Then on the opposite end of the table sat Don Fernando (drinking from a pint glass), Cardenio, and the rest of the gentlemen. And thus they banqueted, with the guests particularly enjoying the speeches of Don Quixote who had descended into intoxication.
