	Commentary	"In this Andalusia there is a town...". Some scenes about Dorotea's story as told by herself to the priest, the barber and Cardenio in Sierra Morena: the Duke Ricardo with his two sons (don Fernando one of them) and a view of Dorotea's village; Dorotea with her parents, labourers; Dorotea going to mass decent and veiled; don Fernando, in love with Dorotea, singing under her window; Dorotea only interested in sewing and embroidering; don Fernando in Dorotea's room at night, confessing his love for her repeatedly; don Fernando promises Dorotea to marry her being his witnesses a maiden of Dorotea and an image of the Virgin; and finally, Dorotea succumbs to don Fernando. Very remarkable and carefully-done narrative composition. Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period clothes, settings 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.
