Parco Studio collaborated on the editorial project Il Giardino Dipinto (The Painted Garden), a text that illustrates the connection between plants, flowers, and fruits with myths, art, and history across the ages. From the Biblical Eden to the u0022Tulip Maniau0022 of the Baroque period, and from Leonardo’s Renaissance to Voltaire’s Enlightenment, the symbolic and historical value of u0022greenu0022 emerges. The book collects both famous and lesser-known art images, exploring the presence of the plant world in art. Each botanical species is accompanied by mythological, historical, and symbolic explanations, creating a journey through parks, gardens, and forests, with artworks and brief commentary.
