About this book

W. Somerset Maugham wrote The Land of The Blessed Virgin; Sketches and Impressions in Andalusia. The contents list names chapters such as The Churches of Ronda, The Swineherd, The Cathedral of Seville and Before the Bull-Fight, among others. The writer says that at the Church of the Espirito Santo he saw a Maria de los Dolores that was almost terrifying in poignant realism.

The writer describes a poor woman in a ragged shawl who knelt in front of the Mother of Sorrows, praying. The writer says the prison is an old convent, with a statue of the Madonna over the central porch. The writer says he was starting for Africa on the morrow, and that he watched the sunset from the quays of Cadiz.
