	Commentary	".... and old valise secured with a little chain...". The innkeeper Juan Palomeque appears holding a valise (represented more like a bag) to show the priest the books that he keeps in it. Also in the scene, Maritornes, the innkeeper's wife and her daughter, the barber, Cardenio, Dorotea (almost hidden behind the innkeeper) and Sancho (approaching). Remarkable figures, with good variety of gestures. Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period clothes, setting and details. 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.
