The Running Water of Villa Lante

This is the lower garden of Villa Lante in Bagnaia, Italy. This is yet another garden that is difficult to find...but so worth it! It is astounding with its intricate details and imaginative fountains everywhere. There are about five levels that make up the garden, all along a center axis. I shot the lower garden from the second level looking down. The sketch below shows the lower garden on the left.


This is the fountain leading up to the third level.

This is the fountain at the top end of the third level.

Love all of the moss and ferns...
