	Commentary	"The bed, which was somewhat crazy and not very firm on its feet, unable to bear the additional weight of the carrier,...". Don Quixote's bed, while the muleteer is hiting and trampling him, brokes down; also in the scene Maritornes and Sancho, who remains sleeping. 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 - "... dibujos llenos de gracia y de expresión. [...] el sentimiento con que están tratadas las formas vacunas de la maritornes; los vivos rasgos con que están pintadas las escaramuzas y pendencias, prestan mayor interés á estos dibujos" (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XLV).
