| Description |  |
Daumier illustrates the episode from Cervantes's novel where Don Quixote charges two advancing armies. His servant Sancho Panza knows that they are merely dust clouds caused by flocks of sheep and implores his master to return. Traces of an earlier sketch of the two figures are visible in the sky.
