Commentary | "The officer turned to him and said: «Well, how goes it, good man?» «I would speak more politely...»".
Dialogue between don Quixote and the officer of justice; Sancho observes them. 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. |
