Description
-
A man rides a broomstick which is carried by a devil on each end. In the background in the distance lies the city of Madrid. The image is occasioned by Don Quixote saying "remember the true story of the licentiate Torralva, whom devils carried through the air, riding on a cane, with his eyes shut. In twelve hours he arrived at Rome, and alighted atthe tower of Nona, which is a street of that city, and saw all the tumult, assault and death of the constable of Bourbon ; and the next morning he returned to Madrid, where he gave an account of all he had seen."
