| Commentary | "... and made off without waiting to ascertain anything further".
The shepherds make off leaving don Quixote lying on the ground half-dead (they believe he is totally dead). Scene with good composition. 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. |
