Look to Italy, not China Another art historian, Hugh Honour, in his famous book Chinoiserie, points out that, "English eighteenth-century gardens ... owed more to the landscapes of Salvator Rosa, Poussin and Claude than to the artfully contrived scenes of Yuan Mingyuan."
另一位藝術史學者歐諾，也在他的知名著作《中國風格》中指出：「十八世紀的英國園林，借鏡於畫家樸桑、洛漢畫中的義大利風景，而非圓明園的藝術造境。」
