[Act VI – Celestina and Calisto]

Description
-
The leftmost side of the illustration features a mildly decorative border, the only location in this edition to feature such a border. The left panel depicts Celestina dressed in a robe and a veil. The choice to use this panel to depict Celestina is rather odd, since the figure appears substantially younger than other depictions of Celestina in this edition (and younger than we would expect her to look). To the right, we see Calisto wearing a hat and holding a long item of some sort, perhaps a cane/walking stick. Both figures are placed outside.The left panel does not appear again in this edition, although an exact replicate can be found on pages 69 and 221 (of the text) in the 1529 Paris edition. The right panel is identical to those found on pages 12, 60, 225, and 235, and nearly identical to the one found on page 317 (where it is labeled ‘Centurio’).
