Gadoue

While we're at it, here's some more works in the palace gardens: the water theatre grove is getting a makeover, apparently it will have a modern twist to it! VDP will have to return in the summer! In the meantime, here's a video of what it will look like (French with English subtitles.)

Pendant qu'on y est, d'autres travaux sont en cours dans les jardins du château : le bosquet du théâtre d'eau est en cours de modification, a priori il y aura du moderne... Il faudra que VDP y retourne en été ! Dans cette attente, voici une vidéo de ce à quoi cela va ressembler.

"Ça nous changera pas d'ici
Nous garderons nos parapluies
Et nous retrouverons la gadoue

Il fait un temps abominables
Heureusement tu as ton imperméable
Et ça n'empêche pas la gadoue" Jane Birkin

That's quite a mess in there at the moment!

You have lots of mud like we do. It will be wonderful by summer time.

Sylvia K said...

Yes, that is a lot of mud!!! But I'm eager to see the results of the makeover!! Hope you have a great week, Ciel!!

After watching the film on the link I can hardly wait to see the finished grove, Ciel!

Not a fan of Cherubs but they are nice shots.

I trust that when you return all that mud will be gone.

A definite work in progress, but it won't be long before everything is complete!

It's an interesting video. I can see why the paysagiste was a bit intimidated to follow in the steps of Le Nôtre. Can't wait to see how it turns out. I'm sure you will keep us "posted" !

Gunn said...

I think the contemporary sculptures will be very nice in there......

Work in progress.

It is worth waiting for!

Happy new week!

(Thanks for the link/film)

I guess you'll have to buy extra memory cards when everything is ready, it will be gorgeous, for sure! :-) Love the cherubs shot.

VP said...

We will have to come back there to check on this!

can't wait to see what the finished product will be!

Looking a bit muddy and puddly now but I'm sure it will be gorgeous in a few weeks!

Diane AZ said...

The project sounds interesting, you will have to return when it's completed. For now, I love the reflections of the trees in the puddles!

I am noticing big puddles. Looks like you have had lots of rain. Looking forward to see the finished layout.

You'd better go back in the summer to show us all the new beauties. MB

I imagine this place ready for Spring and plenty of beautiful flowers!
Just a little bit of patient now! :)

Excellent video Ciel, you will definitely have to get a shot of it in action.

Maybe next year...
