Period: 1800-1850;
Geographic: Spain; Europe
Description: Don Quixote holds a mandoline in his chamber by a window looking out into the night. He strums the instrument, and looking out the window into a garden sings for the people walking outside. Of particular note is his white mantle hanging from his shoulders to his knees and the use of his right elbow to lean against the windowsill as he performed.
