| مستخلص: |
The article informs that poet Constantijn Huygens built Hofwijck in 1641 as a retreat from court life with the House of Orange, which was a simple brick cube, while the long garden was laid out in accordance with the ideals of the Roman architect Vitruvius. It mentions Huygens commemorated his physical achievement with an equal literary one: the poem Hofwijck to set out his reasons for building the place; and also mentions "The Garden" emphasizes restful pleasures and the bounty of flowers. |
