Description: When Celestina (central figure) returns home, she finds Sempronio (rightmost figure) waiting there with Elicia. She tells him that she has good news, but she makes him wait until they are with Calisto. They go to Calisto’s house together, and Pármeno (leftmost figure) sees them as they approach. He tells Calisto of their arrival, and Calisto orders him to open the door.[This illustration is identical to the one found on page 34 of the text: [Act I (Third Illustration) – Celestina and Sempronio Talking as Crito Descends the Staircase].
