This is the first in a series of videos bringing you a virtual tour of the gardens around Hearst Castle. How much do you already know about the hilltop gardens? What information is new to you? We hope you'll enjoy this look at the flora & fauna, along with some of Mr. Hearst's art collection. | Hearst Castle

WR Hearst amassed a massive collection of art objects that spanned centuries of history. From a stylistic standpoint he seemed to prefer the Gothic and Renaissance periods. He had very little admiration for artwork from his own time. But if you look hard enough, you will find modern/contemporary art sprinkled throughout the Castle. Join Margaret as she takes you on a tour of Art Deco at the Castle. | Hearst Castle
