Hever Castle- The Italian Garden

The Astors went to Italy- and came back with crateloads of bits of ancient monument- rather like Citizen Kane (they too were in the newspaper business). The result was Hever's fabulous Italian Garden

Much of it is very beautiful and very old. There are many artistic styles in aboriginal art ... but because of the controversies that constantly swirl about issues relating to aboriginal politics and history , colonisation and subsequent social dysfunction ...the subject is also awash with enormous amounts of bullshit.
Contemporary Aboriginal Art ranges from the superb, (in both traditional and contemporary styles) to some of the world's worst kitsch tourist trash.
