Description: Don Quixote attacks the wineskins while sleepwalking. He is half-dressed, has a blanket draped over his left arm, and wields his sword. The innkeeper grabs him by the shoulder and clenches his fist, preparing to hit Don Quixote. The wine from a punctured wineskin spills onto the floor in the foreground. The barber, the priest, Sancho Panza, and Dorotea look on. Some are depicted with amused expressions on their faces. Signed by G. Cruikshank (illustrator and engraver). Part 1, ch. 35.
