[Act VI – Celestina Talks to Calisto While Sempronio Chastises Pármeno for His Snide Remarks]
-
Description
-
When Celestina (second figure from the right) and Sempronio (one of the figures to the left) arrive at Calisto’s house, Celestina tells Calisto (rightmost figure) about her meeting with Melibea. Calisto experiences impassioned mood swings with every sentence that Celestina speaks, and Pármeno (one of the figures to the left) starts chiding both him and Celestina. Sempronio grows impatient with Pármeno and tells him that his words are harming the happiness of all. Celestina eventually shows Calisto the girdle (presumably the scene depicted here), and he is overjoyed. When the time comes for Celestina to depart, Calisto asks Pármeno to accompany her and ensure that she arrives home safely.
