	Commentary	"They took leave of all...". The priest, disguised with woman clothes, and the barber, with a fake beard, both on mules, leave the inn; also in the scene the innkeeper Juan Palomeque, his wife, his daughter and Maritornes. Remarkable figures, gestures and expressions. Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period clothes, setting and details. 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 - "Justamente estos bocetos son los primeros, según nuestras noticias, que el autor ejecutó en Sevilla, en la última etapa de su labor" (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XLIX).
