Label is mistaken. The subject of this watercolor is the grave of the English poet, John Keats. Shelley's ashes are not far away but are not depicted here. Keats's grave has the inscription "Here lies one whose name is writ on water"; Shelley's monument is inscribed Cor Cordium, under which is a quote from Shakespeare's Tempest, "Nothing of him that doth fade, / But doth suffer a sea change,/ Into something rich and strange." -- a reference to his death by drowning.
