Abstract
This thesis will carry out an analysis of the Tarot Garden created by Niki de Saint Phalle, by comparing it with the surrounding Renaissance gardens in northern Lazio and southern Tuscany. It will describe and compare the ground plans of The Villa d’Este at Tivoli, The Monster Park at Bomarzo and Villa Lante a Bagnaia, which will be compared with that of the tarot garden. The use of formal attributes, as well as nature will also be part in the discussion of this topic, and similar attributes at these gardens such as, fountain and grotto of these gardens will be compared. Finally, the symbolizim that is shared between some of these estates will also be a topic of discussion, as well as their intended meaning.
