Description

Plate I of Gustave Doré's illustrations to Miguel de Cervantes' Don Quixote. From Chapter I.

The ordering of images in this edition is a little complex: There are numerous additional illustrations besides the numbered plates:

This is the order of images up to the end of Chapter 1. For convenience, I shall provide my own overall numbering, to allow some semblance of order.
