The Russell Page Garden is in the Château de Chenonceau in the Loire Valley, France.
The garden, opened in 2018, was inspired by Russell Page. Montague Russell Page (1906-1985) was a British landscape gardener and garden designer who worked in the United Kingdom, Europe, and America. His clients included Prince Edward the Duke of Windsor, King Leopold of Belgium, and fashion designer Oscar de la Renta.
In the garden are animal sculptures. Paris-born Francois-Xavier Lalanne (1927-2008) collaborated with Russell Page to integrate sculpture and art into the garden.
The English garden is inspired by Page’s “ideal” garden.
