Bosket
Boskett (neuter the Boskett , plural also the Bosketten / the Boskette , from French le bosquet "wood", "wood" or "thicket", also "basket" from English basket ) is a " pleasure forest " within a geometrically designed baroque palace garden . It is a form of a special, lavishly designed garden and is part of the schematic structure of almost all baroque gardens .
Boskette usually follow the so-called Parterre , whose trees are criss-crossed by "straight" axes and lined with high hedges. A bosquette should therefore form a counterpoint to the building architecture, since the "architecture of the green" can also have corridors, stairs, cabinets and halls. The Boskette was used like the interior and served as a venue for concerts, plays or other amusements.
Examples of bosquets are the colonnade or the labyrinth in the gardens of the Palace of Versailles .
