Château de Chenanceau: Catherine de'Medici's Garden.

This was the kind of garden frequented by courtier poets such as Ronsard and imitated in English horticulture (see Gallery 12, Page 4: John Donne, Items 6 & 7). Many Shakespeare scenes are set in such elaborate gardens, like the famous Temple Garden scene with the picking of the Red and White Roses of Lancaster and York in Henry VI, Part 1, II.iv.
