Help, please, understand
 

That's got a two-sided sketch on cardboard thickness of 1 mm in size 25h36 see on one side - the steppe landscape, from which a really blows heat. And on the back - Zaporozhye Cossacks. Signatures and inscriptions no. The paint layer is kept very firmly, no cracks, or talus. Soil as is not, apparently, just missed varnish. Letter sweeping, not too pasty. At the edges are not spelled out. As cardboard sketch at least 60 years, and even Pobol. About the possible co-sponsors, will likely be difficult to say, I was searching on the Internet. Not one artist has a style of writing. But maybe someone experienced forumchan still prompt?

And the next question concerns dominated the landscape of strange buildings, from which there is a fence. What is it? Walls, obviously, with the mud ligation of the branches. The form is clearly round. Live in it can not - no windows. For the hive too large. Room for cattle? Then why round? For defensive towers watery, and no loopholes. Toilet (sorry)? But there is no exhaust pipe. For the same reason, not suitable as a silo or a forge. Perhaps, forum from Ukraine will be able to tell what is it? The construction is clearly not modern, perhaps, the definition of its functional role will accurately date the sketch ... Thanks in advance.

The building would be shed for grain or vegetables. Or store hay.
Not forge - very small. It establishes a forge and anvil. There, these things do not fit. Moreover, for the furnace needs drainage (trumpet).

A window of this little hut in the garden look.:)

I think that summer day in this facility must be hot as in hell. So for the storage of vegetables is not very suitable. For the same reason, no good, and as a glacier. Senohranilische? But would like them to do more, but here the eye is not more than 3 - 4 m in diameter, and bottom vents are needed. The same is true for the grain, otherwise sopreet. A hut for shelter ... round shape, why make it like this? But even at the edge of the economy. For dog kennels big. Riddle a word.

In our Russian villages, I toured many villages, as not only kept the hay. And in some sheds no ventilation, except for cracks in the walls of the shed and the front doors of the shed.
Sunshine? I think not. Structure with good walls and roof - is well suited for storage of hay and food products.

About him have to ask someone who lives close to the Cossacks. It looks like a corral for the animals, maybe pigs. This is indicated by the fence, fastened near the door. It's just two studies made in one area, for the memory.

Searching through a number of options, I came to believe that this structure may be the well. In fact, in southern Russia and Ukraine have been distributed well in a crane, but if water is found at 20 m or deeper (and this is quite possibly in the steppe zone), then the sweep is no longer able to get to do the standard design with a collar. And in the landscape designed to depict a sultry day in the treeless steppes, well looks much more logical than a pigsty, because it reinforces the impression as though the heat. And the landscape is being discussed - in general, only construction, giving life-saving shade.

But this is - just a reasonable assumption, because, perbrav probably hundreds of reproductions of the rural landscapes of Ukraine and southern Russia during the week on the Internet, I have never met such a facility. Strange, but true. Neither the old pictures, or modern, nor realistic, nor in kitch. Villages, farms, wells ... However, at home everywhere rectangular wells - Cranes. Round building (stationary) with conical roofs, I found only in the African savannah, but the scenery's not Africa ... Have not any of forumchan Russian or Ukrainian landscape with something similar?

It is clear that private well located within this facility, well sheltered from clogging with dust and drying.
