| Commentary | "Very cautiously untied Rocinante and tied up his breeches".
At dawn, Sancho unties Rocinantes legs; don Quixote remains mounted on the horse without noticing anything. Scene resolved with remarkable 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. |
