Commentary | "But both the sun and their better hopes, failing them near the huts of certain goatherds,...".
At setting, don Quixote and Sancho encounter some goatherds' huts. 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.
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). |
