Commentary | "Sancho put in his fingers, and feeling about as ked [sic] him: «How many grinders...?»".
Sancho counting don Quixote's teeth; figures with remarkable gestures and expressions, quite comical. 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. |
