| Commentary | "And Sancho, having accomodated Rozinante and his ass in the best manner he could,...".
In the foreground, Sancho unsaddles Rocinante and his donkey. In the background, one of the goatherds with his flock. Scene resolved with good naturalism; notice Sancho's expression. 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. |
