More about this scene

Here we see the east front of Chatsworth, where a team of gardeners with their carts full of bedding plants are working on the Italian gardens. These gardeners could well have been employed by Joseph Paxton, the great engineering genius who joined the Duke of Devonshire's staff in 1826.
