| Commentary | "Sancho took the lint and ointment ont [sic] of his wallet,".
In a forest, while don Quixote unsaddles Rocinante, Sancho takes some lint and ointment out of his bag to heal don Quixote's wounds (the Biscayan cut his ear). Scene resolved with good naturalism. 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.
