They worked in a ceramic workshop belonging to the notorious Jasenovac camp system, established in the summer of 1941, after the foundation of the Independent State of Croatia, a puppet state of Nazi Germany ruled by the fascist Ustasha movement..."„Daniel Kabiljo (Sarajevo, 6.03.1894. - logor Jasenovac, 1944.), danas gotovo zaboravljeni sefardski umetnik iz Sarajeva, bio je 1942. godine među grupom jevrejskih zarobljenika, među kojima su bila tri slikara i vajar. Radili su u keramičkoj radionici koja je pripadala zloglasnom sistemu logora Jasenovac, uspostavljenom u ljeto 1941. godine, nakon osnivanja Nezavisne Države Hrvatske, marionetske države nacističke Nemačke kojom je vladao fašistički ustaški pokret...“This article is based on the paper presented at the 15th World Congress of Jewish Studies, held at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, August 2-6, 2009.
