WRITTEN IN FRENCH

From the end of the 14th century to the beginning of the 17th century, the Renaissance saw the flourishing of a poetic art that accompanied the development of the art and science of gardens, which occupy a prominent place in humanist thought.
Seven poets, from Francis Petrarch to William Shakespeare, enjoyed the charms of the garden, in the private sphere as well as in the service and praise of princes. Renaissance gardens, from medieval heritage to new forms of representation of knowledge, thought and sensitivity, stimulate and sometimes even outpace poetry.

Not only did these authors choose the garden as their privileged place of creation, but poetry also slips into the smallest details of an art that is paradoxically alive and perishable.
All the works on display, mainly from French and foreign public collections, describe an itinerary divided into seven stages. Each of these sections is placed under the gaze of one of the chosen poets and dedicated to both the reading and the presentation of works directly related to its author.
