Show Notes
There are some gardens that seem born of imagination rather than geography. Gardens that defy their setting, their time, even their materials. And on Lake Maggiore in northern Italy, there’s a garden like that. Isola Bella. The Beautiful Island. It wasn’t always beautiful. Originally it was just a lump of rock. A fishing islet, bleak and stony, known as Isola Inferiore.
