Italian villas and their gardens; . ame lack ofpersonal charm. It is perhaps owing to the fact thatFlorence was so long under the dominion of one all-powerful family that there is so litde variety in herpleasure-houses. Pratolino, Poggio a Caiano, Cafag-giuolo, Careggi, Castello and Petraia, one and all, whatever their origin, soon passed into the possessor-ship of the Medici, and thence into that of the Austriangrand dukes who succeeded them; and of the threewhose gardens have been partly preserved, Castello, Petraia and Poggio Imperiale, it may be said that theyhave the same impersonal official look as the Boboli.

It was an ad-mirable rule of the old Italian architects, where thegarden-space was small and where the site permitted, to build their villas facing the road, so that the full ex-tent of the grounds was secured to the private use ofthe inmates, instead of being laid open by a public ap-proach to the house. This rule is still followed byFrench villa-architects, and it is exceptional in Franceto see a villa entered from its grounds when it may beapproached directly from the highroad. Behind Castello the ground rises in terraces, enclosedin lateral walls, to a high retaining-wall at the back, surmounted by a wood of ilexes which contains a poolwith an island. Montaigne, who describes but (ewgardens in his Italian diary, mentions that the terrac
