		Margravine Wilhelmine (1709 - 1758) - daughter of the Prussian King Wilhelm I. - who moved to the Franconian city of Bayreuth as Margravine after her marriage to Margrave Friedrich - created a landscaped garden legacy that bears her own personal touch.
		Wilhelmine's melancholy nature and her disappointment with her fate in life were influential to the development of the hermitage as a synthesis of the arts: it appears that nothing has been left to chance, and that every single aspect has significance and a reason for being.
		For example, in full awareness of her ancestry, though already anticipating the end of absolutism and the dawn of an era of enlightenment as a result of her frequent correspondence with Voltaire, she created a wonderful combination of baroque-style personification, prestige and explicit homage to rural life.
