About

I am both a trained gardener and an art historian. From the start in June 2006, the main objective of Historical Gardens blog has been to serve as a place where current affairs in historical gardens and the continuous progression of my research meet. My main focus has always been the introduction of the landscape style in the Netherlands, just after 1750. But gradually I have been exploring broader areas of the field.
