One of the most stunning Italian gardens photographed in two colours by Vittorio Giacometti through the changing seasons.

[The Villa Pisani Gardens] The first half of the eighteenth century was a glorious period for the Pisani family, and their magnificent villa at Stra is a monument to that golden age in Venetian history. Time has stood still within the garden walls, and the photographer Vittorio Giacometti from Veneto captures this atmosphere on a journey that sheds light on past centuries, revealing that nature renews itself constantly through the gradual unfolding of the seasons.
The choice of two colours to illustrate one of the most renowned Italian gardens and the sequence of skilfully ‘edited’ lush images creates an intense and compelling visual, making this a fascinating and highly-original volume.
