Commentary | ".... went out to welcome them with signs of hearty satisfaction,...".
Don Quixote, Sancho, the priest, the barber, Cardenio and Dorotea are welcome by the innkeeper Juan Palomeque, his wife, his daughter and Maritornes. Remarkable group of figures, with good variety of gestures. 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. |
