[Tex/LaTex] subfigure inside tabular multirow

Question

I'm trying to align 3 subfigures in a 2-by-2 table, where the second column is a multirow spanning the two rows.

Here's where I am:

Usually \multirow vertically centers its contents, but that's not happening with the subfigure.

Here's the code to generate the previous image.

\documentclass[]{article}
\usepackage[margin=1in]{geometry}

\usepackage[subrefformat=parens,labelformat=parens]{subcaption} %% provides subfigure
\usepackage{tabularx} %% tabularx and multirow so that we can do nice subfigure layouts
\usepackage{multirow}

\usepackage[demo]{graphicx}

\begin{document}

\begin{figure}
    \begin{tabular}{c|c}
        \begin{subfigure}{0.3\linewidth}
            \begin{center}
                \includegraphics[width=1.9in, height=1.9in]{logo}
                \caption{}
            \end{center}
        \end{subfigure} & \multirow{2}{.5\textwidth}{
            \begin{subfigure}{0.3\linewidth}
                \begin{center}
                    \includegraphics[width=3.9in, height=3.9in]{logo}
                    \caption{}
                \end{center}
            \end{subfigure}
        } \\
        \cline{1-1}
        \begin{subfigure}{0.3\linewidth}
            \begin{center}
                \includegraphics[width=1.9in, height=1.9in]{logo}
                \caption{}
            \end{center}
        \end{subfigure} &  \\
    \end{tabular}
\end{figure}

\end{document}

Answer 1

That-a-way? You can reference the subfigures adding a label in the first argument of \subcaptionbox which is to contain the caption text and the label: \documentclass[]{article} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[margin=1in, showframe]{geometry} \usepackage{caption} \usepackage[subrefformat=parens,labelformat=parens]{subcaption} %% provides subfigure \usepackage{multirow} \usepackage{cleveref} \usepackage[demo]{graphicx}

\begin{document}

\begin{figure}
  \centering\setlength\tabcolsep{1.25em}
  \begin{tabular}{c|c}
    \subcaptionbox{\vspace*{2ex}\label{1st-fig}}{\includegraphics[width=1.9in, height=1.9in]{logo}} & %
    \multirow{2}{*}[\dimexpr1.9in-\baselineskip-0.5\abovecaptionskip-0.8ex\relax]{\subcaptionbox{label{3rd-fig}}{\includegraphics[width=3.9in, height=3.9in]{logo}}}
    \\
    \cline{1-1}
    \subcaptionbox{\label{2nd-fig}}{\includegraphics[width=1.9in, height=1.9in]{logo}}
                                                                                                    &
  \end{tabular}
  \caption{Some figures}
\end{figure}
We see in \cref{1st-fig} …
