Commentary | "Without bidding adieu, or speaking a word to those in the coach, entered a wood...".
Don Quixote, mounted on Rocinante, and Sancho, on his donkey, arrive to a forest after the adventure with the Biscayan. In the background, the carriage of the Basque lady and her companions moving away. Remarkable representation of both characters. Jiménez Aranda's drawing skill is masterly; remarkable use of light and shadow with impressionist effects. |
Notes | 1 – Reproduction of the original sketch (Chinese ink and gouache white). Jiménez Aranda meant to paint a more-finished drawing after this sketch using natural sceneries and real models, but he died before completing the project. |
