ENThe article analyses eight paintings from the cycle of Stations of Cross, preserved at the National Museum of Lithuania, which are attributed to the works by Jan Rozalinas on the basis of their signature. The authorship of these works of art is being revised, and the links with the paintings by the well-known Lithuanian artist Petras Rozalinas (end 18th c. - 1st qtr 19th c.) are being established with reference to available sources as well as analogues. Moreover, the article seeks to reconstruct the origin of the Stations of Cross and analyses whether this particular cycle could have been painted for the Bernardine Church in Troškūnai. The prototype of these images in the late Baroque style (i. e. the Stations of Cross of St. Paul Church in Venice, painted by the Venetian painter Giandomenico Tiepolo) is also being indicated and discussed. This artist has been presented within the field of Lithuanian fine arts criticism for the first time. The following two cycles, i. e. the Italian original as well as the Lithuanian replica, are being investigated from the point of view of the example and the replica. Upon summarizing data from written sources and analysis of the Stations of Cross, it is possible to assume that the Stations of Cross preserved at the National Museum of Lithuania could have been produced by the famous Lithuanian painter Petras Rozalinas (end 18th c. - 1st qtr 19th c.). It is less likely that these works were painted by a painter and follower bearing the identical surname, who used to work in the surroundings of the master.The authorship issue is going to be solved finally following the restoration works, when the authentic painting is uncovered. Although incomplete, the cycle of paintings is highly important for the development history of the painting of the Stations of Cross as it is one of the earliest Lithuanian examples of the regulated 14 Stations of Cross (2nd half 18th c. - 1st qtr 19th c.), and only a few stations have been preserved. This cycle of the Stations of Cross, performed in the late Baroque style, is also valuable from the artistic point of view. This is the only Lithuanian cycle on the sufferings of Christ that the author of the article is aware of, painted according to the prototype by the prominent Venetian artist Giandomenico Tiepolo and transformed in a unique and expressive manner. This significant fact supplements the relevant research on the prototype of religious fine arts. This work by Petras (?) Rozalinas has unveiled one more connection with European (Italian) Catholic fine arts. [From the publication]
