Commentary ".... and came out to the gate of the inn to console Sancho Panza...".
The priest, the barber and Cardenio consoling Sancho (who had believed that don Quixote had really killed a giant).
Approaching from the background, Dorotea, the innkeeper, his wife and his daughter (or Maritornes).
Remarkable figures, with good 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.
