Helena Modjeska-Chłapowska and Karol Chłapowski's friendship with Adam Asnyk, which started early and lasted until the poet's death, and which each of them, as it may seem, greatly valued, is a poorly researched issue. The letters presented here, with one exception unpublished so far, make a contribution to the study of the artists' relations. The correspondence is preserved in the Jagiellonian Library, and it consists of 18 letters and 1 telegram written between 1869 and 1891. Asnyk authored all of them, 11 were sent to Chłapowski and the actress was the addressee of the remaining ones. The telegram was signed by three senders, namely Adam Asnyk, Karol Estreicher, and Michał Bałucki. The present paper is preceded by an introduction describing the nature of the correspondents' friendship, and supplemented by a register of Asnyk's pieces that the actress recited.
