    The anagnorisis scene in which the Old Man's scar-token proves Orestes's identity to a skeptical Electra, leading to their reunion.

    A scar along his brow, where he fell and drew blood one day in his father’s home when chasing a fawn with you.

    O you who have appeared at last, I hold you, beyond all hope.

    Orestes:

    ElectraClassical · Greek

    The recognition is the scene in which Electra moves from mourning Orestes as dead to knowing he stands alive before her.

    Ah, dear friends and fellow-citizens, see Orestes here, who was dead by design, and now by design has come safely home!
