| Commentary | "... he raised himself, stopping half-way bent...".
Sancho tries to stand up completely, but he is unable; don Quixote and Rocinante remain lying of the ground after having been beaten by a group of yangüeses. Sancho's figure is quite remarkable; good expression and gesture. 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. |
