	Commentary	".... when presenting his hand, he said, Take, madam, this hand, or rather this chastiser of the evildoers...". Don Quixote, standing on Rocinante, offers his hand to the "lady of the castle" through a window (Maritornes and the innkeeper's daughter). Previous instant of a well-known scene. Well-resolved figures and remarkable setting. Great interest in representing real and accurate period clothes, setting and details. Realistic/picturesque style with good light and shadow effects; notice the full moon.
	Notes	1 – After José Jiménez Aranda’s death, his brother, Luis Jiménez Aranda, continued illustrating Don Quixote (part I) following a very similar realistic/picturesque style as the one used by his brother, but, sometimes, his figures lack naturalism.
