|  A colonnaded grape arbor 
 |  One end of the herb garden 
 | 
|  My mother and I on a velvet green lawn, bracketed by trees thick with lichen and moss 
 |  The herb garden 
 | 
|  Moss, rusty despite the abundance of moisture it drank, carpeted the trunks of the old limes 
 |  Red and yellow roses along a stone wall 
 | 
|  Grey carp gasping for crumbs at the ruffled surface of the canal
