Cupid fountain, com. The Garden, County. The Veil. The garden is the village of residence of the commune of the same name from Vâlcea county, Oltenia, Romania. The camera lens captured an aspect of popular architecture from 1964. The excavations conducted during that period were part of a research project conducted in several regions of the country. The picture illustrates an aspect of the old folk architecture from this area: landscape from a hill area, near a village. After placing the four monuments in that place, we deduce that it is important in the community - job at the meadows or one of remembrance of an event or people. The well is made up of: water source with a boot, a fencing fence of the boot and a cuddle with a cuddle (bucket). Cumpagna rests on a wooden fork. On it, at one end, the ciutura (of its thin end) is caught by a long hair. At the foothills of the hill, three high trots with roofs are placed. As they are inscribed, they appear to be grave crosses.
