	Commentary	"And with a great deal of trouble, he heaved him upon his own ass...". Pedro Alonso heaves don Quixote upon his own ass; notice the remarkable figure of don Quixote, defeated and worn out. Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period clothes and landscape (with a remarkable impressionist style); 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 1899 in Sevilla and presented at the National Exposition of Madrid (1899). 2 - "A la energía con que está tratado este capítulo sucede la delicadeza y el espíritu con que Aranda interpretó el siguiente. Le da comienzo con la presencia del labrador que se acerca al caído, le limpia el rostro y le conoce. Desembarázale luego de peto y espaldar, le sube á su jumento, lía las armas sobre Rocinante, toma á éste de la rienda y del cabestro del asno, y se encamina al lugar" (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XXXVIII).
