Scene from the Orto Botanico in the Brera District of Milan
In this scene we get an important lesson on how sight lines can make a garden seem much larger than it is. The leading lines of the pathway, the encroaching growth of the plants and the architecture at the end make it seem like the garden goes on for an even greater distance.
This garden is hemmed in By buildings on each side and isn’t particularly large, but new vistas were always opening up as you walked about.
