The
magnificently established sentinel cypress trees provide both distinction
and privacy to the villa beyond. Upon viewing this magnificent work,
one is instantly ready to ascend the luxuriously casual flagstone
driveway.
The
entrance urns, molded in impruneta terra-cotta, a classical feature,
are positioned to provide a silent pause; an essential ingredient
bespeaking eloquence. The cascading thicket of flowering plants
abounds on the entry slope and tumbles downward to overcome the
stone retaining walls. The entrance route is enhanced by the graceful
arching branches of several specimen olive trees.

King's mastery of his media creates another stunning work that is
at once, exquisitely timeless, yet powerfully modern. |
