Commentary | "The innkeeper when he saw him go without paying him ran to get payment of Sancho,...".
Once don Quixote has left the inn, te innkeeper Juan Palomeque demands his payment to Sancho; notice their gestures; other guests observe the scene. Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period clothes, setting 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. |
