| Commentary | "Come hither and see how many of my teeth and grinders are missing...".
Don Quixote, still lying on the ground, asks Sancho to count how many teeth remain into his mouth after having been stoned by some shepherds. Figures with good gestures; notice also Rocinante and Sancho's donkey, picturesque detail. 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. |
