Rufpreis
The figure of the folklore musician is the work of Ferdiš Kostka, an important folk jug maker and figurative ceramist, whose work and technique followed the famous Haban ceramics. Just as his brother Ján preferred scenes from contemporary Stupava life, Ferdiš also focused on the people and life of his native village. He and his sister Maria designed group series of several figures depicting the work and play of the people. His ceramic sculptures won him a diploma of recognition at the 1927 World Exhibition in Paris.
