| Commentary | "They came upon a little meadow at the foot of some high rocks,...".
Don Quixote, mounted on Rocinante and followed by Sancho with his donkey, arrives to a meadow with a rush of water among some high rocks. Jiménez Aranda's drawing skill is masterly; remarkable use of light and shadow with impressionist effects; excellent landscape. |
| 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. |
