Chateaux, Parks & Gardens: Legacy of Royal France

At NSSC, Northfield Location: 

Tish Robinson, The Wonders of France

The architectural brilliance and visionary designs of France's legendary chateaux and their adjacent parks and gardens are one of France's most important gifts to Western culture. Versailles, Fontainebleau, and Vaux-le-Vicomte, among other royal sites, will be highlighted. Their gardens, many of which were designed by Andre Le Notre, "the greatest landscape architect the world has ever seen," illustrate the art of blending landscape design with historic chateaux during the 17th century, the Golden Age of France.
