Melibea hands over the girdle to Celestina, who carries a staff.

Illustration of act V of the Estella edition (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…

Illustration of act VI of the Estella edition (1557)

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.

Illustration of act X of the Estella edition (1557)

Illustration of act XII of the Estella edition (1557)

First illustration of act XIII of the Estella edition (1557)

Second illustration of act XIII of the Estella edition (1557)
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.

Illustration of act XIV of the Estella edition (1557)
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…

Illustration of act XV of the Estella edition (1557)
Image used in act X. Now it is used for the conversation of Areúsa and Elicia with Centurio. The same image is used again in acts XVIII and XXI.

Illustration of act XVII of the Estella edition (1557)
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…
