The subject of this watercolor has been identified by Mary Crawford Volk (unpublished letter in the drawing department's curatorial files,16 July 1990) as a relief panel in the 16th-century "retablo" of the Church of Los Jer—nimos in Granada. According to the diary entry of a fellow traveler, Sargent was in the church in 1895, but also traveled to Granada in 1903 and 1912.
