Commentary "And taking the ass by the halter, he proceeded more or less in the direction...".
Sancho, taking his donkey with don Quixote mounted on it by the halter and followed by Rocinante with don Quixote's arms, heads towards the main road.
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.
