About this work

To reach the giant Malambruno Don Quixote and Sancho Panza must travel through the air on the magical wooden horse Clavileño. In this scene Don Quixote and Sancho Panza sit blindfolded on Clavileño. A man with a bellows and a man with a torch make the knight and his squire believe that they are flying through the air. To the right the duke and duchess watch.
