Description

Judge and two soldiers with Pármeno and Sempronio (one on the ground, the other jumping out the window) on the left side and on the right, Pármeno and Sempronio kill Celestina with swords while Elicia tears out her hair behind Celestina. Curiously the scene is represented as if it occurred outside, in the same street to which Pármeno and Sempronio will later fall.
