Book Description :
Excerpt from Temptation Once inside the courtyard of the palace, the forbidding im pression created by its exterior faded. Immediately opposite the great entrance a massive, yet graceful open loggia disclosed a Vista of terraced gardens, of formal hedges of box and shady ilex avenues while, beyond these, a vast tract of open country - hill, dale, and woodland - spread away as far as the eye could see. The fact that the gardens were no gardens, but rather a wilder ness in which everything grew at its own sweet will and pleasure, that the box hedges were neglected in a manner sufficient to drive a topiary gardener mad, and that the terraces were tracks of lush weeds broken here and there by flights of crumbling stone steps, added rather than the reverse to the fascination of the place. If the first thought of a foreign, and especially of an English visitor to the gardens of Palazzo Vitali was apt to take the form of regret that these should be so neglected, the next thought, were the visitor possessed of an artistic sense, would infallibly be to hope that nobody would ever think it necessary to put them into order. Not many foreigners, however, do more than visit the principal monuments of Viterbo, and very few have occasion to penetrate into that quarter of the town where Palazzo Vitali may be seen standing out grim and forbidding amid the squalid dwellings surrounding it.
