[Act VIII – Pármeno and Areusa]
-
Description
-
The right panel depicts a female figure. This must be Areusa, since she is the only female character in the eighth act. She is wearing a robe and a veil. In her right hand she is holding a flower, while in her left she is holding the girdle cord hanging from her waist. At her feet, a dog is standing on its hind legs with its front paws extended toward her. The left panel depicts a male figure, likely Pármeno (since he is the only male character in this act with whom Areusa speaks). The figure, dressed in regal attire, is wearing a hat and has a sword mounted on his belt. Both figures are placed outside.This entire illustration is identical to those found on pages 112 and 120 of the text.Both panels are near carbon-copies of panels found multiple times throughout the earlier 1529 Lyon edition. However, the lower attention to detail in these panels makes it clear that they are reproductions and not duplicates. The artist likely referred to a copy of the 1529 edition when creating these panels.
