Commentary | "And streched upon the green grass, with hunger for sauce, they breakfasted, lunched, dined, and supped...".
Don Quixote and Sancho dining after the adventure of the dead body; Rocinante and Sancho's donkey grazing. Scene resolved with good naturalism. 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. |
