| All the gardens participate in the same quest of the "lost paradise" and subject the nature to their subtleties: architectural compositions in Rome or closed gardens of the Middle Age, theatres of the humanism in the Renaissance and reflections of the monarchs of the Great Century, the paintings of landscapes in England, public walks in the whole Europe and finally contemporary urbanism. The art of gardens is connected to the cultures and to the societies which imagine it. |
