| Commentary | ".... so they allowed the others to go on before them, while they themselves followed...".
In Sierra Morena, Dorotea (princess Micomicona) and the barber, led by Sancho, go in search of don Quixote, followed by the priest and Cardenio at certain distance. Remarkable figures and good composition. 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. |
