Don Quixote, mounted on Rocinante, trying to decide his route. Great interest in representing real Spanish and accurate landscape (notice the thistles); 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 1899 in Sevilla and presented at the National Exposition of Madrid (1899). |
