AB  - The most renowned pieces of artwork of the RAKO Company in Moravia are the ceramic pictures installed in twelve stations of Jurkovič's Stations of the Cross on Mount Hostýn, created after the designs and under the supervision of the Moravian painter Jano Köhler during 1912-1933. The cut mosaic technology, developed by Emil Sommerschuh, the director of the RAKO Company, was used which appeared in architectural decoration from the beginning of the 20th century to the 1930 s. The text continues the article 'Comments on the Origin of the Stations of the Cross Made by Dušan Jurkovič on Mount Hostýn and the Problems of Its Renewal' published in Průzkumy památek (Historical Monuments' Research) last year, and it complements the previous insufficiently interpreted process of creation of these ceramic mosaics. This compelled the author, similarly to the previous article about Jurkovič and unlike the previous publications, to present this story with the use of authentic testimonies whose basis, requiring thorough archival research, is private correspondence.
