Title: [Sancho Scopes the Room for Eavesdroppers]
Period: 1800-1850;
Geographic: Spain; Europe
Description: Sancho moves around the room with stealthy steps, allowing only the balls of his feet to touch the ground. His body is bent, and his finger on his lips. The image is occasioned by the duchess asking Sancho to speak freely, and the squire, not wanting to be overheard by his master, looks for any signs of any who would overhear him and bring him trouble.
