Commentary ".... many were the compliments and expressions of politeness that passed between Don Quixote and Don Fernando;...".
Don Fernando eulogizes don Quixote; also in the scene, Sancho, the priest, Cardenio, Luscinda, Dorotea, the barber, don Fernando's companions, the innkeeper and her wife (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.
