	Commentary	"And invited them both, with show of much goodwill, to share what they had". The goatherds invite don Quixote and Sancho to dine with them; notice their gestures and expressions. Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period setting, clothes and details; realistic and picturesque. 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 - "... las escenas pastoriles evocan recuerdos virgilianos, [...] composiciones llenas de vigor y de originalísimos efectos de claro-obscuro, que de color parecen según la riqueza de tonos conseguida en algunos trozos" (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XLIII).
