Commentary "... and, laying them to the ear, bound them on fast,...".
One of the goatherds heals and bandages don Quixote's hurt ear; Sancho holds a burning stick to light the scene.
Jiménez Aranda's drawing skill is masterly; very 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).
