London: Frances Lincoln, 2007. Very well illustrated. large quarto, pp 128, very clean internally, grey cloth in very good condition, and excellent copy in bright dustwrapper. SCARCE. A heavy book - extra postage will be needed. ["Probably the most enigmatic garden in Europe, the Sacred Wood at Bomarzo in central Italy has been called extravagant, mysterious, unholy, surrealist, fascinating and good fun, but it has never been perfectly understood - which is possibly just as its creator intended. The recurring theme of the ornamentation in the garden is the struggle of man's soul to distinguish between earthly and divine love, to see what is real and what illusion. Drawing on familiar figures from classical literature and contemporary Italian works, Vicino poses challenges to his audience, forcing an intellectual as well as an aesthetic response to the complex landscape of Bomarzo."]. First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good.
