Commentary ".... bowing her head and bending her body as a sign that she returned thanks".
Zoraida thanks Dorotea and Luscinda their offer; also in the scene, the innkeeper's wife and Maritornes.
Remarkable figures, with good gestures.
Great interest in representing real Spanish characters and accurate period clothes, setting and details; good contrast with Zoraida's Moorish clothes.
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.
