Parterre and Fountain

44
A low circular fountain stands at the center of a gravel terrace, with clipped cypresses framing a long, level lawn beyond. This parterre (formal garden of patterned beds and paths) form, developed in 16th–17th c. France, spread across European aristocratic villas. The strict geometry here channels Baroque interest in mastering perspective and choreographing movement through garden space.
