[Act VI – Sempronio Chastises Pármeno for His Snide Remarks While Celestina Talks with Calisto]
-
Description
-
As Celestina informs Calisto of her meeting with Melibea, he cannot contain his emotions (they are seen talking to the right of the image). Pármeno repeatedly makes snide remarks under his breath, insulting both Celestina and Calisto. Sempronio overhears these remarks and grows angry with Pármeno (they can be seen to the left of the image), pointing out that his words are damaging to both Celestina and to Sempronio himself. To the right of the illustration, we can see Celestina wearing a robe and a veil. Calisto stands beside her, wearing a coat and a hat, with a sword mounted on his belt (it can be seen protruding from behind his coat in the bottom right corner). His hung head and facial expression convey and air of sadness. To the left, we see Pármeno and Sempronio, who are both wearing hats. We also see a sword protruding from behind Pármeno. Pármeno is pointing at Sempronio as he glances toward Celestina and Calisto, perhaps warning him of Celestina’s treacherous and deceitful ways.The entire image is identical to those found on pages 47 and 171 of the text.
