| Commentary | "... when on turning a corner the true cause... appeared plain an obvious...".
Don Quixote, mounted on Rocinante, and Sancho, taking his donkey by the halter, discover the cause of the strong noise that they were hearing: the fulling mills. Remarkable figures and landscape. 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. |
