| Commentary | "But with all his pains he saddled his ass, who too had gone astray somewhat...".
Sancho saddles his donkey while don Quixote tries to get up after having been beaten by a group of yangüeses; Rocinante remains lying on the ground also beaten. 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. |
