Early slices of paradise: Gardens in ancient times
FLORENCE: Gardens are as old as civilization and the origins and early
development of them are the subject of "The Ancient Garden from Babylon to
Rome: Science, Art and Nature." Spanning over 2,500 years, the exhibition -
which contains nearly 150 reliefs, statues, mosaics, frescoes, antique
gardening tools and models illustrating ingenious hydraulic devices - is at
the restored 18th-century Lemon House in the Boboli Garden of the Pitti
Palace and continues until Oct. 28.
