| Commentary | "Seeing his good intention, the travellers were unwilling to press him further,".
Don Quixote and Sancho pursue their journey and Vivaldo and his companion theirs; good figures, gestures and expressions. In the background, the group of goatherds and shepherds moving away. Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period 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. |
