These colorful blooms create a picturesque setting for leisurely strolls or peaceful picnics amidst nature's beauty. For panoramic views encompassing both natural and architectural wonders, one can gaze from Caen Wood's green slopes towards Old Highgate Church spire - a sight that has captivated many since c1935. Amongst all these treasures lies another remarkable portrait; Diana Cecil, later Countess of Oxford painted between 1616-1618 portrays her timeless beauty and regal demeanor.
