The Garden of Eden

 

Annemette Fogh, (MA in English, Italian and Art History. University of Copenhagen, Denmark) present us the Garden of Eden in Venice. The garden was created and bought by an English couple, Frederic and Caroline Eden. From 1884 and throughout La Belle Époque this vast beautiful garden became the meeting point and inspiration for an international elite of writers, poets, actors, and painters from Henry James, Robert Browning, Proust, Sargent, and Monet to the members of the Anglo-American Venetian colony. 
It is now owned by the Hundertwasser Foundation in Vienna and is completely closed to the public.

Wine and canapés will be offered after the talk!
