The first sally in quest of adventure: Quixote mounted on a horse at left, arrives at an inn with the sign of a bunch of grapes. Sancho Panza, far left, holds his horse as Quixote turns back and gestures to two women standing at right. In the background beyond a fence at back, a man blows a horn; originally illustrated for the translation by Charles Jarvis: The life and exploits of the ingenious gentleman Don Quixote de la Mancha (London, 1742).
