Baroque Garden Desıgn Perıod in European Palace Gardens

This study explores the complex evolution of Baroque garden design within European court gardens and illuminates its importance in shaping cultural, aesthetic and social landscapes. Through a multidisciplinary approach that blends historical analysis, architectural study and horticultural understanding, this study reveals the fundamental principles, key features and social motivations that drove the creation of these emblematic spaces. Using a comparative framework, it examines prominent examples from Italy, France, England and beyond, recognising regional differences and cross-cultural influences. Methodologically, archival research, site visits and landscape reconstructions are integrated to provide a comprehensive understanding of the genesis and evolution of these gardens.
