| Commentary | "... and questioned the peasant at large...".
The priest and the barber ask Pedro Alonso about how he had found don Quixote. 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). |
