| Commentary | "Open the gates there, for the lord Baldwin...".
Don Quixote, mounted on Pedro Alonso's donkey, arrives to his house; Pedro Alonso knocks the door. 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 1899 in Sevilla and presented at the National Exposition of Madrid (1899). |
