Beautifully illustrated by Janina Petry-Przybylska, a poetic tale about a pair of princely lovers by Halina Gorska (1898-1942) – a social activist and respected author of literature for children and young people. The work combines elements of legend, symbolism and romantic storytelling, building an atmospheric world based on values such as love, fidelity and courage.
The tale is distinguished by its lyrical language and subtle moral layer, characteristic of the work of Gorska, who combined social sensitivity with literary imagination in her books. Janina Petra-Przybylska’s illustrations add artistic value to the publication, emphasizing its decorative and collectible nature.
A leather-bound copy from the bindery of the Polish Antiquarian, with the utmost care taken to ensure durability and safety for generations.
