As Waldemar Łysiak writes in Empireum, vol. I, p. 85, Żenczykowski belongs to the group of Polish bookbinders who designed and made "edition bindings" of the Olympic class. In Lviv, this bookbinder made extraordinary, luxurious publishing bindings for the most outstanding works of Polish literature, which were published in album form by the H. Altenberg publishing house [ source: https://artinfo.pl/dzielo/oprawa-wydawnicza-z-przelomu-xix-i-xx-w ].
