Description
Composite scene with an unidentified servant, Calisto, Melibea and Lucrecia, with the initials above. Celestina, also with initials above is knocking at the door, with the thread in hand. A tree in the center. An illustrated edition with 26 engravings (and the cover) that can be seen by clicking here: Burgos, 1531.
Juan de la Junta reuses this image for the cover of his Tragicomedia de Lysandro y Roselia, 1542, adding the initials of the characters to the figures. Curiously, he does not supress the initials above the image of Celestina.
