This paper presents an analysis and interpretation of Zofia Gordziałkowska’s poem The SpringEvening [Wieczór wiosenny] from her volume Böcklin in poetry [Böcklin w poezji] (1911). It aimsto describe one of Gordziałkowska’s methods of utilising the works of arts which were the inspirationfor her works. As almost all the texts in the volume were created because of the paintingsby the Swiss artist Arnold Böcklin, popular at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, his works providea fundamental context for those considerations.The conducted analyses indicate that, in some of her works, the poetess clearly does not faithfullyreproduce all the details of the described paintings but offers her own development of the themepresented by Böcklin.
