Description of the competition for the Mickiewicz monument in Vilnius

The text describes the awarding of the first prize for the Mickiewicz monument in Vilnius. The winner turns out to be Stanisław Szukalski, an American Pole temporarily residing in Paris. It goes on to describe this and other projects that will also not be realised. It is mentioned that the competition committee will probably have to announce another plebiscite (Source: Tygodnik Illustrowany, Warsaw 1926, Półrocze II, p. 821, after: University of Łódź Digital Library).
