„Хто не бачив „Софіївки”, той не має повної уяви про те, як мистецтво впливає на природу. Каміння й вода – ось її багатство… Зайдеш, не вийшов би вічно: усе прекрасно… Скрізь видно геній смаку…” І.Долгорукий. Національний дендрологічний парк „Софіївка” - видатне творіння к. ХVІІІ – поч. ХІХ ст., витончена поема з каменю, води, рослин, архітектурних споруд і скульптур. Парк, що розкинувся на площі близько 170 га, і сьогодні вражає відвідувачів своєю неповторною красою та загадковою романтичністю. Парк створено власником міста Умані, польським магнатом Станіславом Потоцьким, як подарунок коханій дружині, красуні- гречанці Софії Вітт-Потоцькій. Автором та головним митцем і натхненником архітектурного проекту, а також керівником будівництва парку був призначений талановитий польський військовий інженер Людвіг Метцель. Кожний куточок парку овіяний міфами і легендами стародавньої Греції та Риму, пов’язаний з переказами та романтичними історіями про сімейне життя Потоцьких. Фото, карта - С. Пархоменка.

Peter Murray guides the reader from the earliest revivals of the Roman style to the villas of Palladio and Vignola. Tracing the innovations of the brilliant architects who worked for ambitious and demanding patrons, he explains, for example, how Brunelleschi-solving a century-old problem-raised the great dome over the cathedral of Florence. What Brunelleschi began, Alberti, Bramante, Raphael, Romano, Michelangelo, Sansovino, and others continued: an eloquent composing of space by order and proportion.
