• Resumen

  • The excellent National Trust exhibition of works from its collections representing gardens had a resonant and persuasive title: "An English Arcadia, 1600-1990". The title brought together elegantly a number of themes in the history of English garden-making: nationalism; orientation towards the imitation or recreation of the landscape arts of classical and southern Europe; and the fact that there is little to say about specifically English garden-making prior to the beginning of the seventeenth century.
