| Commentary | ".... and he asked the curate with great eagerness who this beautiful lady was....".
Sancho asks the priest about Dorotea; the priest will introduce her as princess Micomicona. Also in the scene the barber and Cardenio. Remarkable figures, with good gestures and expressions, specially Sancho and the priest. 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. |
