This photographic exhibition shows Janet Boulton’s own, truly
remarkable garden. Janet is well known as a painter of gardens;
from local allotments to Italian gardens and especially for the
sequence of paintings of ‘Little Sparta’, depicting the garden
of sculptor Ian Hamilton Finlay.
In the book,’ Fore Ground/ Ground Back’ which accompanies this
exhibition, Janet describes the early influence of classical
Italian gardens and the acclaimed Barnsley House garden of
Rosemary Verey. Later she diversified into sculpture and
incorporated signs with words and encoded messages, in the
manner of a cubist still life.
Come and be inspired.
