OCTOBER
PAINTING PARADISE:
THE ART OF THE GARDEN
The Queen’s Gallery, Palace of
Holyroodhouse.
Until 19 February 2017
Whether a sacred sanctuary, a place for
scientific study, a haven for the solitary
thinker or a space for pure enjoyment
and delight, gardens are where man and
nature meet. This exhibition reveals the
way in which gardens have been
celebrated in art across four centuries.
It includes works by Leonardo de Vinci,
Rembrandt van Rijn and the Sevres
Porcelain Factory and some of the
earliest and rarest surviving depictions of
gardens and plants.
