[Act IV – Celestina and Lucrecia]
-
Description
-
The left panel depicts Celestina, who is in a seated position and is wearing nun-like attire. In her left hand, she is holding what looks like a paper of some sort (likely the charm/spell given to her by Melibea), while in her right she is holding what is likely meant to represent the girdle cord given to her by Melibea. In the right panel we see Melibea’s servant Lucrecia, who is wearing a veil and a robe. In her right hand she is holding flowers. Even as a servant her robe appears somewhat ornate, perhaps intended to demonstrate the wealth of Melibea’s family.The left panel is nearly identical to those found on pages 88 (where there are some added marks that extend her robe, which appear to have been added by hand at a later date) and 208 (where it is labeled ‘Elicia’). The right panel is nearly identical to the those found on pages 170 (where it is labeled ‘Lucresse’ instead of 'Lucrecia') and 216 (labeled ‘Alisa’).
