| Notes | 1 - "Hay en el dibujo una soberana sobriedad de trazos. Ni la menor precisión detallista, ni la más leve indicación anecdótica. ¿Qué paraje es ese? ¿Cuál es la indumentaria? ¿Cómo se llama ese árbol? No es necesario saberlo; mejor, es preciso no indagarlo. Pero la estampa se apodera de la vista y la absorbe con su poder de transfiguración" (Givanel 319-320). |
