Kent's Gardens, William Kent: Designing Georgian Britain

William Kent: Designing Georgian Britain, on view at the Bard Graduate Center: Decorative Arts, Design History, Material Culture from September 20, 2013 to February 9, 2014, is the first major exhibition to examine the life and career of one of the most influential designers in eighteenth-century Britain. Organized by the Bard Graduate Center in collaboration with the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the exhibition is curated by Susan Weber (BGC) and Julius Bryant (V&A). Two of Kent's most important gardens, at Rousham and Stowe, remain today close to Kent's original designs. This video offers a virtual journey through these gardens. http://bgc.bard.edu
