The volume "Popular port from the Plain of Muntenia in the collections of the National Museum of the Village" is one of the 50 catalogs published by the museum's specialists in the last 10 years. All these occurrences are real bricks for the construction of a folk art treatise.

Georgeta Stoica, one of the authors and the one who managed in recent years to bring to the attention of those in love with port and Romanian barks, unknown histories and novel stories either from the research periods on the ground, or from the analysis of each individual object. This volume brings together the expertise of acad. Georgeta Stoica, associate professor Dr. Paula Popoiu and Dr. Georgiana Onoiu on 3 economically important areas and rich in sources of influence: Ilfov, Teleorman and Vlașca.
