Commentary "... and the two made up a very bad bed for Don Quixote in a garret...".
At Juan Palomeque's inn, the innkeeper's daughter and Maritornes prepare a bed for don Quixote while Sancho disarms him.
Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period clothes, setting 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.
2 - "... dibujos llenos de gracia y de expresión" (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XLV).
