Commentary "She ran out of the romm,".
The housekeeper running out of don Quixote's library; inside it, the priest and the niece (also the barber, but not represented).
Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period setting (detailed and superb), 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 1899 in Sevilla and presented at the National Exposition of Madrid (1899).
2 - "... dibujos del capítulo VI, llenos de expresión y de gracia" (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XL).
