Architectural Elements From Maramures - Old vs. New

Elementele specifice arhitecturii maramuresene:

- gura de lup;

- peretii sunt imbinati in coada de randunica;

- cuie din lemn;

- arcadele simbolizeaza bolta cereasca;

- stalpii de la constructiile din lemn au forma Coloanei Infinitului.

Am intrebat si am notat, chiar daca se spune ca am o memorie buna. :) Imaginile nu surprind decat cateva dintre aceste elemente. Gura de lup se regaseste in primele si ultimele doua imagini. :)

The specific architectural elements from Maramures:

- "wolf's mouth";

- the walls are linked like a "swallow tail";

- wooden nails (I think it is used also "wooden pegs", but not pegs as feet... :));

- the arches symbolize the sky;

- the poles from the wooden constructions have the form of the Infinity Column.

I asked and then put down all the details, even if they say I have a good memory. :) The images show only some of these elements. The "wolf's mouth" can be found in the first and last two images. :)
