A Garden to see in real life

Venzano is the first garden book where I thought, "I must see this in person." The pictoral collection shows a real, working garden, from all of it's angles.

Serene gardens

An extrodinary book about a fantastic garden place. It's been said that some travelers go to Italy to see Italian art and history, while other travel to see Italians and Italian life. This book gives a glimpse into a fantastic rural garden and life built by the owners of Venzano. It is a serene garden, and this book captures well its intense images. You have to travel there yourself to sense the other delights--fragrances, winds, and twilight dinners on the terrace. Examine this book if you want to sense the rural life in the lovely Tuscan hills.
