摘要：The gardens of the summer villa of the old and renowned Dubrovnik noble family of Gučetić-Gozze in Trsteno, 25 kilometres west of Dubrovnik, was built between 1494 and 1502 in the Renaissance spirit. Throughout the following fi ve centuries, it developed spatially, formally, and stylistically with recognizable concepts of the early and late Renaissance, Baroque, Romanticism, and Historicism. The single-axis composition of the garden has been preserved throughout all of these periods, which points to a detachment from the usual layout of Dubrovnik Renaissance gardens in the form of an irregular grid. The single-axis composition singles out Trsteno as a typological idiosyncrasy in Dubrovnik’s Renaissance garden architecture.
