Period: 1800-1850;
Geographic: Spain; Europe
Description: Don Quixote sits in a wooden chair with a beaded necklace slung over his left wrist, looking indignantly towards the robed figure at his feet. Pictured to the left at Quixote's feet, the robed figure kneels on both legs and begs for Quixote to fulfill their request. On the left, a second robed figured stands with their hands grasped together. On the right the Duke and Duchess (pictured in rich and fanciful apparel) look at these robed figures, as do their servants. In the center of the background one of the servants is delivering chicken to the Duke.
