	Commentary	"Courteous saludations were exchanged on meeting,...". The group of don Quixote, Sancho and the goatherds encounters a group of shepherds and gentlemen on horseback (with Ambrosio and Vivaldo); they all greet each others. Remarkable variety of figures, gestures and expressions (around sixteen figures). Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period clothes and details; realistic and picturesque. 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 - "Entre estos doce interesantes cuadros sobresale, por más pintoresco, el del encuentro y saludo con los pastores que vienen delante..." (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XLIV).
