Description: The left panel depicts Celestina standing outside. She is wearing a robe and a veil, with what looks like a rosary hanging from her waist. On the right we see Sempronio, who is holding some sort of satchel and has a sword mounted on his belt. Beneath his feet there is a decorative panel, which appears to depict a flower and roots. The entire image is nearly identical to the one found on page 51 (only the decorative panel differs). The left panel is identical to the panel found on the title page (with the exception of the colour found there), the one found at the end of the book, and those found on pages 105, 150, 162, and 221. The right panel is nearly identical to those found on pages 125 (labeled ‘Pármeno’ and no decorative panel), 229 (labeled ‘Centurion’ and no decorative panel), and 235 (labeled ‘Tristan’ and different decorative panel).
