Commentary | "And calling the host, he told him what this good man wanted".
The officer of justice tells the innkeeper the ingredients for which Sancho has asked 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. |
