In the early years of the 17th century a wide garden was opened up in the Palazzo Controni Pfanner in Lucca.
It was ordered by Curzio Controni, who entrusted the laying out of it to Filippo Juvarra. It is like a single theatrical set, with a view that wends its way along paths from the large octagonal pool to the central avenue, between statues of the Months and Seasons and symbolic representations of the classical gods.
