Resumen de The design and realization of The Park of the Royal Palace at Caserta by Luigi and Carlo Vanvitelli
The visitor to the park of the royal palace at Caserta today would find it very difficult to identify its original appearance, although one can hardl y speak of an original appearance of the Caserta park . In fact, since it isin the very nature of plants to grow and lose their original appearance, it is difficult to imagine how any garden originally looked . This is because the basic characteristics of the various kinds of green ery combine to create a poetic and emotional impression which is very unstable : the uncontrolled growth of a single hedge, for example, is sufficient to alter the previous harmony. This is even more true of those gardens patterned along well-established geometrical lines, in which plants are considered as material to be shaped in accordance with predetermined designs.
