Commentary | "As soon as he had done bathing his beautiful feet...".
In the foreground, Dorotea (in man clothes) finishes bathing her feet. In the background, the priest, the barber and Cardenio hidden and observing her. Well-known scene. 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. |
