	Commentary	"... who was the first to leap forth upon the plain.... and who, attacking the postrate commissary, took from him his sword and the musket,...". In the foreground, Ginés de Pasamonte taking from the defeated guard his musket; in the background, Sancho releasing other galley slaves (left) and some of the guards (right). Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period clothes and details. 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. 2 - "... dibujos tratados de un modo muy original y moderno, que produce mucho relieve en las figuras y singular efecto en los conjuntos" (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XLVII).
