This programme looks at the symbolic qualities of natural and horticultural landscapes. By looking at some of the ways in which landscapes were represented pictorially, it is possible to understand... more about those symbols and their history, as well as about the ways in which Andrew Marvell, in 'Appleton House' and 'The Garden', used them to convey and explore ideas about the age in which he lived and the values it suggested and required.
