	Commentary	"... nor seam which he did not rip, nor lock of wool which he did not carefully pick...". In Sierra Morena, Sancho inspects carefully the portmanteau (Cardenio's) found by don Quixote (not represented, only Rocinante's legs). Original image; figure with good expression. Jiménez Aranda's drawing skill is masterly; remarkable use of light and shadow with impressionist effects; notice the 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. 2 - "... composiciones de un aspecto nuevo, en fondos abruptos, generalmente sitios en que la luz apenas llega, dorando, en cambio, los picos de las montañas" (José Ramón Mélida: “Don José Jiménez Aranda y su "Quijote"", vol. I TEXTO, p. XLVII).
