A place of constantly renewed dialogue between nature and culture, the garden is a virtuoso of metamorphosis. At times a symbol of the ordering of the world created for the sole pleasure of the eye, at times a book of knowledge with many chapters, the garden is a living myth that plunges those who frequent it into a multitude of emotions, intellectual, olfactory, visual and tactile, but also gustatory and auditory. The garden is a kingdom for the senses, a place that stimulates mind and body and offers them opportunities for pleasure and fulfilment. An enclosed space where man strives to tame and sublimate nature according to his own criteria, the garden is, from childhood to maturity, a refuge, an entertainment, a necessity. Man comes here to remember and to nourish himself, to learn and to work, to play and to dream, but also to confront the laws that govern our universe. In the garden there is no illusion: the destiny of each depends on the development of the whole.
