The illustration is a historical Polish newspaper page from March 1930. It contains multiple drawings and text in Polish. The upper part shows a group of people in winter clothing standing on snowy ground, a map of Alaska with marked routes, and a caption about Polish explorers traveling there. The middle section highlights islands near Alaska with Polish names. The bottom part includes a drawing of two people sitting at a table with one behind bars, accompanied by a caption about Kraków in earlier times. To the right is a portrait labeled with information about Henryk Sienkiewicz and Polish surnames.
