Commentary | "... that, seeing himself likely to be left behind, he was obliged to call aloud to his master to stop for him".
Sancho on his donkey following, or trying to follow, don Quixote on Rocinante through a forest. Jiménez Aranda's drawing skill is masterly; remarkable use of light and shadow with impressionist effects; notice the light effects through the trees. |
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.
2 - "El bosque es en esta serie un tema tratado con una tendencia pictórica muy hermosa..." (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XLIII). |
