Old gardens are special places, conceived as idealized images of nature in its most harmonious and perfected state. For centuries, Arcadian landscapes—envisioned by painters since the Renaissance—offered their patrons glimpses of pastoral tranquility and escape from urban chaos. These gardens, much like the myth of Arcadia itself, represented a longing for paradise, a place where humans could live in harmony with nature. Yet for a long time, owning such gardens was a privilege enjoyed by only a select few.
