Description:
- This print shows a view of the palace, or casino, of the Villa Albani overlooking the terraces, fountains and parterres of the garden. The classical garden façade of the casino is two storied and comprised of nine bays. The first story has an open loggia articulated by a double Order in the manner of Michelangelo's Palazzo dei Conservatori. On the roof sits a rectangular open-air belvedere with a small pavilion in each of its four corners. To either side of the casino stretch one-storied wings, or galleries, each terminating in a classizing temple front turned to face one another across the garden façade of the casino. Various pieces of antique sculpture are located at different points throughout the garden.

Description:
- The Stowe engravings illustrate a garden design of the so-called Transitional Phase in English landscape history. While containing many formal elements typical of the 17th century -- such as parterres, avenues of clipped trees and hedges, fountains and straight-sided canals -- Stowe, as depicted in these engravings, also incorporates many garden buildings and, most importantly, ha-has that are characteristic of the 18th-century English landscape garden. - The marbled and leather-edged portfolio in which the prints were acquired is stored separately in a solander box (size IV).
