Title: [Of How Sancho Reacted to Princess Micomicona Changing to Dorothea]
Period: 1800-1850;
Geographic: Spain; Europe
Description: After Lucinda, Fernando, Cardenio, and Dorothea reached a happy conclusion in their perplexing business only poor Sancho droops sadly. He seeks Don Quixote after his hopes are dashed into smoke; after the Princess Micomicona was changed to Dorothea, and the giant to Don Fernando. Thus, very melancholy, Sancho Panza (slouching on the right) slips into his master's chamber, who had slept on, and was just awakened, thinking little of what had transpired. Dressed in his nightgown, Quixote is much displeased by Sancho's disillusionment of his knightly affairs. To the right, Don Quixote has laid down his sword shield and hat.
