| Commentary | Camila pretends to have stabbed herself deadly before Leonela and Lotario.
Theatrical scene, in keeping with Romanticism taste; the gestures and expressions of the three figures, although theatrical and lightly forced, are well-drawn and engraved. The white and black contrasts of the printing have been reinforced; they are remarkable. |
