The Gardens At Rousham

Rousham in Oxfordshire was one of the first landscape gardens created in England by William Kent in the 1730s. It is still one of the most influential, and has inspired landscape architects, garden designers and garden lovers worldwide. To Monty Don 'it is the greatest masterpiece of English gardening - a flawless work of genius.' Rousham is one of England''s most important gardens. It represents the first phase of English landscape design and remains almost as its designer William Kent left it, with many of its 18th century features left intact. Rousham''s gardens enjoy an enormous following amongst top garden designers as well as garden lovers. It has become a place of pilgrimage for landscape architects and garden designers worldwide as well as garden lovers. Its magical glades and sculptural set-pieces have long intrigued Francis hamel, who has lived and worked there for 25 years. Since the beginning of 2020 he has composed an extraordinary collection of paintings that capture the garden and their magic.
