Comment by the artist: "At the end of October I finished illustrating La Celestinawith approximately 80 drawings, the project had stalled for various reasons. This time the publication was planned for February 2010. In this illustration I…

Comment by the artist: "This other drawing illustrates a fragment in which Pármeno describes Celestina's house to Calisto, specifically the room where she prepares her potions and spells."
Comment by the artist: "In this other drawing of La Celestinawe can see Lucrecia, Melibea's servant, showing off her beautiful blonde hair and a fresh breath thanks to the ointments that the "old whore" has provided in exchange for her will."

Busts of Calisto and Melibea with laurel leaf crowns. The abbreviated names of the characters are shown above.This is an illustrated edition that can be seen by clicking here: Estella, 1557
Celestina walks through the street while a dog barks at her and a man and woman watch her from the doorway of a house. This does not appear to represent any specific scene from the act. Perhaps it is a reference to Pármeno's words in act I "si pasa…
The banquet in Celestina's house with Pármeno, Sempronio, Elicia and Areúsa. A dog under the table is eating something. A large jug of wine beside Celestina.
A difficult scene to understand as it does not correspond to the action in act X. A man approaches to speak to a woman who is sitting or has fallen down while the other one present stands. This could refer to the page who comes in search of Alisa,…
The same illustration used in act VI, which shows Celestina talking with a seated Calisto, while Pármeno and Sempronio talk amongst themselves behind her.
Sempronio amd Pármeno stand guard while Calisto is at the gates of Melibea's garden. Because of the types of arms they carry it seems to be a military scene. Note that the shield Calisto carries has an image of a heart pierced by an arrow. The same…
Scene used previously for act VIII to show Pármeno and Sempronio talking at the door of a house. Now it could represent them before entering Celestina's house and killing her.
Pármeno and Sempronio's execution. It is novel to include two women in the right margin watching from the window, as if referencing Elicia and Areúsa, although this detail does not occur in the text. This image is used again in act XX.
A strange representation of Calisto's visit to Melibea which shows Sosia and Tristán in the same image and the ladder beside Melibea. The image seems to suggest that Melibea had descended from a tower using the ladder. The same image is used again in…
Same image of a woman in bed and a man and another woman at the foot, used in act VIII representing there the visit of Pármeno and Celestina to Areúsa. Here the image does not make sense as it does not correspond to the action in the act. It is…
The same illustration used in act XIII Pármeno and Sempronio's execution. Now it does not seem to be connected with the action of the current scene, save for referencing the previous event.
The image shows a young woman sitting on a chair and a young man sitting in front of her and holding her hand. Next to the young woman appears an old woman with her head covered and with her hand on the young woman's shoulder. By the title of the…

Goya-type model of a maja on the balcony with a procuress behind. A young woman looks out on a balcony and on the left, an old woman that acts as her procuress.
A young woman sitting in a room near a balcony. Around her, an old woman sitting on the right, a man sitting on the left, and a man standing on the left.
The image shows a young man sitting at a table and an old woman with her head covered talking to him. The way in which the old woman is represented is reminiscent of Celestina in the Celestinesque tradition.
