Description: The left panel depicts Celestina standing outside. She is wearing a robe and veil, with what looks like a rosary hanging from her waist. On the right, we see Pármeno pointing upward with a sword mounted on his belt.The entire image is nearly identical to the one found on page 221 (where the left panel is labeled ‘Elicia’ and the right is labeled ‘Sosia’).

The right panel is identical to those found on pages 43 and 135, and nearly identical to the one found on page 190 (where it is labeled ‘Sosia’).
