Ever since English gardens began to be influenced by those of Italy, urns, fountains and statues have found an honourable, often the most honourable, place in their scheme. They contribute very much to the embellishment and magnificence of a garden, whether large or small, terraced or open-ground.
“Garden ornaments provide emphasis and accent in a garden, drawing the eye in a particular direction. Most ornaments, because they are solid and static objects such as urns, seats, columns or statues, provide a contrast with the living things around them.”
David Hicks, 1929-1998
