This may be the work listed as by Velázquez in an inventory of 1637 of the house of Fernando Afán de Ribera, duke of Alcalá de los Gazules who died that year. It was described as "a kitchen where a woman is pounding garlic" without mention of the religious scene.  It reached England probably already owned by Lt. Col. Henry Packe, who fought in the Peninsular War, and after the death of his son William in 1880 was auctioned at Christie's in 1881. It was bought by Sir William Henry Gregory who bequeathed it to the National Gallery in 1892.
