Commentary | "And so saying, he took out what he had provided, and they eat together".
In a forest, don Quixote and Sancho eating; don Quixote's ear has already been bandaged by Sancho. Scene resolved with good naturalism. 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 - "El bosque es en esta serie un tema tratado con una tendencia pictórica muy hermosa..." (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XLIII). |
