Description
-
After freeing the galley slaves, Don Quixote and Sancho Panza rest for the night the heart of the Sierra Morena. While they sleep they are visited by Gines Pasamonte, the famous knave and thief who had been freed from slavery by Quixote who subsequently hid in the mountains. Pasamontes is not the grateful type and sets about stealing Sancho's donkey as well as their supplies. Sancho Panza (left) sleeps so soundly that he does not realize when he is lifted from his donkey Dapple and placed onto a saddle held aloft by four stakes. Seeing as Rocinante is such a particularly weak horse, Pasamontes (background) leaves after taking the donkey whilst Quixote (right) and Panza remain asleep
