The famous Mickiewicz story after 1900 not only did not lose its popularity, but also lived to see many new editions, including illustrated ones. The most famous of these was adorned with a cover and illustrations - one of the most popular illustrators of Young Poland - Antoni Gawinski. In the flood of designs made by the master, it is among his most expressive compositions, and therefore the best. It owes a lot to the contrasts: the sketchy silhouette of the devil, outlined in black, juxtaposed with the colorful stain of Mr. and Mrs. Twardowski's outfit. It is only a pity that it is already a funeral work of Polish Art Nouveau, as it was published in 1928." source: Jan Straus, Now Cover, Warsaw 2021, p. 1343
