F.PIAZZA - THE VENETO: ... garden of Venice

"... Era questo giardino vago molto e di
maravigliosa bellezza; il quale, oltre ad un
bellissimo pergolato di vite che largo e
ombroso per lo mezzo in croce il dipartiva,
una medesima via dava agl'intranti di qua e di là ...".
Pietro Bembo, Gli Asolani, XVI sec.

To Francesco Piazza the garden is a microcosm full of enchantment and he holds the secret key to discover all its charm.

Sometimes standing out from the pure architectonic scenes are quiet corners of greenery, glimpses of melancholic parkland full of past memories, 19th century beds of roses and creepers, at times there is just a patch of grass covered with golden leaves, or white snow shapes, or again a tuft of hydrangeas, symbols of an entire universe.
