| Commentary | "... who, perceiving a man approaching in full armour;".
At the sight of don Quixote, completely armed and mounted on Rocinante, the two party girls, scared, try to run away; notice their gestures. 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. |
| 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). |
