| Summary | "Dell'arte dei giardini inglesi" by Ercole Silva is a treatise on the art of gardening, presumably written in the late 18th century. This work explores the principles and aesthetics of English gardens, highlighting their integration with nature and the artistic influence that transformed English landscape design. It delves into how gardens can embody the beauty of the natural world while serving as tranquil retreats for human enjoyment. At the start of the text, Silva presents the context for his exploration of gardening in Italy, noting the growing interest in English garden aesthetics. He compares the English approach to landscaping with previous traditions, emphasizing the renewed appreciation for nature's irregularities and natural beauty over rigid formal gardens. The opening discusses notable figures in the development of garden design, such as Francis Bacon and Lord Temple, outlining their contributions and philosophies regarding the harmonious integration of nature with artistry in garden aesthetics. Silva's observations set the stage for a deeper examination of gardening as both an art form and a means of enhancing the human experience in natural settings.
