Les plaisirs des jardins au XVIIIe siècle – Seneffe (Belgium)

The 18th century garden pushes the very limits of its surface in both the literal and the figurative sense. As a place of inspiration and expression, it offered the Age of Enlightenment the possibility to contemplate its function and to evolve via the integration of features aimed at satisfying the quest for absolute pleasure. Entertainment, libertinism, a taste for travel, culinary pleasures, philosophy, science as a whole… combined, within this particular setting, towards the construction of a new society based on the multiplication of sources of pleasure.
