| Commentary | "Near the road which he kept, he espied an inn,...".
Don Quixote, mounted on Rocinante, espies an inn; notice don Quixote's gesture. Great interest in representing real and accurate landscape (La Mancha) and architecture (inn); realistic and picturesque. Jiménez Aranda's drawing skill is masterly; remarkable use of light. |
| 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). |
