Commentary | ".... and drawing his head to his breast had it on,....".
The priest, pretending to use a spell, fixes the barber's fake beard; Cardenio, princess Micomicona (Dorotea), don Quixote and Sancho observe the scene. Remarkable figures, with good gestures and expressions; notice don Quixote and Sancho, both astonished. 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. |
