	Commentary	"The next moment he went to view his horse,...". Don Quixote observing his horse (Rocinante( at the stable; also the greyhpound and a pair of donkeys (the ones he will promise to Sancho in chapter 25:1). Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period setting, clothes and details; realistic and picturesque. Jiménez Aranda's drawing skill is masterly; remarkable use of light and shadow.
	Notes	1 - The original drawing (Chinese ink and gouache white) was finished in 1898 in Sevilla and presented at the Exposition of Fine Arts of Barcelona (1898). 2 - "Va después á ver su rocín á la cuadra, donde hay además dos borriquillos. Por lo justo y bien encajado, es por cierto notable el dibujo del rocín" (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XXXII).
