Commentary | "Cardenio and the curate were watching all this from among some bushes...".
The priest and Cardenio, both hidden, observe don Quixote, Sancho, princess Micomicona (Dorotea) and her squire (the barber) leaving Sierra Morena. Remarkable figures, with good gestures, and remarkable 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. |
