Pavel Khokhlov as the Demon

“We were mightily impressed by the scene on the rock; the sound of his voice, its intensity, and the musical declamatory intonation — they fit the acoustics of the stage and sense of what was said perfectly well. The artist created a completely unique type of the Demon, a very sympathetic type, especially in the final act.” Sovremennye izvestia. 1880. No.30
