Commentary | ".... and thereupon the unhappy gentleman began his sad story...".
In Sierra Morena, Cardenio begins to tell his story to the priest and the barber. Remarkable figures with good gestures and expressions. 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. |
